Had two this morning in the hawthorn, but not for long, one shot out rather quick.

It's that time of year, isn't it ? It's all about territory for robins now, until next February.

I think I have an established relationship with my robin now :nod: . While I was putting the food out this morning he landed on a nearby shrub and stayed there looking at me and chirping :D . Such a charmer :love:

Had a robin this morning take advantage of the pied wagtails mealworms. Stayed and had a couple.

A robin was staying in the hedge a lot today. Coming out now and again to the bird table for food.

I've been hearing my robin sing during the night, at all hours :scratch: . Has anyone come across such a behaviour? It doesn't sound right hearing a bird sing in the middle of the night :eek:

Not heard it myself butterfly. But it can be down to light pollution. Any bright lights nearby?

Oh it might be that than Willpar :eek: , I wouldn't say bright lights, but its a city, high street is nearby, street lights and all that. I just hope it gets enough sleep, hearing it in the middle of the night is a bit disturbing :unsure:
