#482 was a close thing with 2 re-runs but I concede defeat to 2ofus. Well done and well played. No doubt Hilary had a victory speech prepared, 'Just in case'; I too had a picture selected from my album 'Just in case' I will post it anyway because I find robins and blackbirds very bold and cheeky, and great to have around the garden.
The caption competitions aren't going anywhere so I'm sure you will get your wish soon enough Raddang
Raddang, thank you and you are much more prepared than I am. That is a great picture you had ready to go. I, instead, am not prepared so 'a hunting I will go' to try to find one as good as the one you had ready.
@Cayuga Morning That little chap is a European robin. They are very common here, territorial and can be very aggressive to invaders of their territory. However they are very bold around people and with a few mealworms they will come onto my hand.
@Raddang Wow that is cool Raddang. Now that i look at it a second time, I can see its relation to an American robin. Robins here will sometimes peck at their reflection in a window for weeks. I guess that means they are pretty territorial here too.
We have a lot of robins around the woods along our complex. We feed the birds in winter but not in summer. In Texas we had robins all winter long. They must have followed us up here. There is plenty around for them to eat here. dooley
Great picture Raddang,..they are a very friendly little bird to humans,..fantastic having one in the garden,..well captured image.
