Tails from the bird table 01 - Robin all the worms
So today I had another attempt at stop motion on the bird tray.
This time is purchased "small bird" food, to try and prevent the Big Fat Pigeons eating everything, and added some lovely meal-worms.
This was the best shot of nearly 3 hours of photos (just over 700 shots, taken at 15 second intervals).
I have cut out the some of the blank shot (which was most of them) and added the vidoe here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMyq3FtbXfg
Well it was worth the time and effort, what a chummy little fellow you have captured. Love the gymnastic warm up, he will be doing the splits by tomorrow. FAV
Good capture. I watched the video. I think the pigeon got more than his share. I felt like I was taking one of those peripheral vision eye tests in which tiny bright lights blink. You are supposed to say when you see one of those light. I felt like calling out "bird" when I saw one "blink" in the background. Funny me! Great video though.
Thank you all so much for your lovely comments, I have added a photo of these blue planters in full bloom, that was taken back in May 11 and linked below.

I love your comment about the eye test Kathryn, if you look at the video from 21 seconds in, you can see the Robin dancing about in the planters until he appears on the table at 38 seconds.
Thats too funny...........just love the video.........watch out David Attenborough, but your star performer is a feisty little thing, poor you, all that time and effort, sorry didn't mean to laugh!!
I am often amazed at some peoples kind comments and other times I am amused by the wit, but today.. I get the feeling that you three have been out on the wine together?
I love you... Thank you for making me smile.
Well caught! Cool video - about the only way you'll keep a woody off is by suspending the seeds in a hanging feeder, then he'll hang around on the ground below to collect the seeds the others dropped!
And the composition is really nice, too.
