At last - of all the robins singing in the trees on my walk with Jinks this morning, I managed to locate and 'shoot' one.
A beautiful birthday day, bright bue sky and sunshine and Ray just popped in from his ambulance car driving with flowers and a New York cheesecake so I don't need to cook a dessert for tonight. (Funny thing, when we were kids, we used to think that shop-bought was better than home-made. I guess it is - sometimes.)
Lovely little robin giving you a Happy Birthday wish! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! This is a busy birthday month...mine is Christmas Day....they keep coming faster and faster.
Lovely capture -- he was singing "Happy Birthday" to you. It sounds like you had a great day -- good-o for flowers and birthday robins and cheesecake! Fav
You know that you will always get a Fav from me for a lovely robin shot like this - absolutely lovely. Happy Birthday Hazel. I hope you have a great meal tonight followed by your lovely cheesecake
Well you said you kept hearing one but could never capture him so how appropriate that he appears on your birthday. Happy Birthday and have a wonderful evening. Fav.
Thank you Paula for good wishes and yes, I'm always hearing robins! This morning there must have been about half a dozen in different trees and I got shots of two, this was the best.
Thanks, Gena. I'll say Happy Birthday now to you just in case I miss it on Christmas Day - will try not to! Those birthdays do whizz round now, I agree.
I accept your fav with great pride, Rosie - I've been trying for ages to capture a robin. I think they must have been relaxed in the sun this morning, singing away and forgetting to fly away!
