Our friendly garden robin by rosiekind

Our friendly garden robin

I did actually take 2 photos today with my point and shoot as I haven't had much time, work and shopping. However, I can't find the lead that plugs into my laptop to upload it and the memory card is too small to fit into my card reader so I have posted this one from yesterday. I took it as I was about to come into the back door and he flew onto our oil storage tank really close to me. He was almost too close for my 400mm lens so I had to gently pull it in so that I could get him in the frame. He just stood there quietly looking at me while I talked to him. I can't help but love these little birds as they seem to know that I love them and hang about with me. Sometimes I wish they could talk as I'm sure we would have a lovely conversation. Mad, aren't I?!!!!

Anyway, thank you for getting 2 of my shots on PP yesterday. It is really much appreciated and I'm sorry if I don't always comment on your shots but sometimes have to just click the Fav button as I am following an awful lot of people.
Stinkin' cute!!!

No I am mad you are perfectly sane talking to Robins. Try shouting at Kingfishers !

Well, if you are mad, so am I, as I talk to our robin, the blackbird (Mr OkeyKokie) and the jenny wren. I haven't resorted to shouting at Kingfishers like @padlock, but given the dance they take him on I am not suprised! I am at the offering prayers to the heavens that one appears on the stick I am focused on!!!
