We're getting used to having our robin come very close to us as we work or sit in the garden. It's a mutualistic relationship, is what I'd call it - we both benefit. Her nest of 5 eggs has only one surviving chick to feed - maybe that makes life easier for her?
Here she is, flying directly towards me
She's been gathering all manner of things to take back to her chick
Here she is, right next to me, so that I could only see her from above. So trusting.
The robins and blackbirds arrive right away when Dale whistles to alert them to free handouts. Dale sat and waited with his camera ready this time -isn't she gorgeous?
