My Robin has been very vocal today. Each time I stepped outside the back door he was to be heard twittering away. Nice

Perhaps the exceptionally mild weather is fooling him (it was 58F here today !!).

Cupid has struck again - Bobbin with a lady friend. She ate daintily and he watched attentively from above. Soppy date.

Good to hear Placi. Time to order the wool and fettle the needles I think.

I had two Robins in the front garden today doing what looked to like house hunting Time will tell whether my site has been selected.

. Trick is, don't tell 'em the rent yet.

I've made that mistake once before . The little blighters tried to get away with a peppercorn rent
They were out there again today. I thought they were attempting shenannigins at one point

Our robin didn't take long to find the fat filled coconut I had put in the bush at the front of our house by the window.
Thought he had it all to himself until the blues found it.

Bobbin has a trick of sitting on a certain prominent pyrawotsit branch where he can be easily seen by me. This signals that he's hungry again . So I was out there this affie obeying the command; we were just chatting away as one does when down comes his chosen innamorata. We formed a sort of equidistant 4 ft triangle and he began a little sub-song to her.
Haven't heard that for ages and I was quite sure he was talking to her - I think he was saying that I'm harmless if a little barmy .

Brilliant, Placi
