Nice one! The Robin looks kinda confused regarding the strange bloke pointing a camera at it.

Off subject... are you the Lester Entwistle who worked at TBA Glass Fibre in the 70s?

That's a lovely photo. I agree with you Gerald, the robins over here are nothing like the British ones. Nowhere near as photogenic.

Cheeky little blighters.

I once had one take food from my fingers. What an experience.

They are quite tame and easily get used to us in the garden.

Oh,you made my day .Gorgeous little creatures.

You made my day too; I have missed "real" robins all the time I've been in Canada. Thanks to WW and photo of the day, I'm seeing them quite regularly each winter. Thankyou to all photo posters!!!

Les... I don't know if you remember me, but I was the young lad who worked with Jimmy Flattely on packing just before Glass Fibre moved from the North Block to the Greenfield site?

I have another 12 years to retirement... now, how is that for Tempus Fugit?!!? I was 16 when I started work at TBA.

(Time Flies) :-D
