Erithacus rubecula or the European Robin, is the UK’s favourite bird and frankly I’m not surprised. Who doesn’t like having a friendly robin for company when you’re out in the garden?
This beautiful little juvenile spent over half an hour with me today in my garden, curiously watching as I photographed it from a distance with a 300mm lens. Recently flown the nest I think and maybe a little too trusting, or is it really a lost relative coming to say hello?
I know what I think. Fly high little Robin.
