You'll be fine ... there's only seagulls and immigrants on the beach this time of year

Guess that precludes the idea of eating chips or ice cream on the prom then?

 

[orangecurious]

I have no problem with gulls or immigrants

Happy February

There's a pair of robins in my garden.

I was with a friend listening to the pretty song of a robin. He then pointed out that in robin speak, he was saying "Oi!Oi! My fucking manor! You want some, eh? You fucking want some? Come over and shag my missus - I'll have your fucking head off, son. Oi! Oi! I'm the fucking king!"

 

[orangecurious]

I often feed Robin and they will, sometimes, sit in the vegetation and quietly sing afterwards... maybe it's a thanks you.

The whole Dawn Chorus is just shouted threats

They are very territorial. We had a nesting pair in our shrubbery last year. I don't know if they return to the same nest.

This might be a little triggering but they only live for about two years
I was gutted when I found out

they usually hold a territory... often male and female will hold neighbouring ones and fight, until it's mating season, then combine territories.

i have had a male robin take food from my hand and fly to the mate and feed her... it's part of the courtship that he feeds her. pretty sure they named one of the chicks after me.

I've watched two male blackbirds sparring for territory for weeks in our garden. I'm beginning to suspect it might be a bromance or they're simply hopping about like chess pieces to keep warm.

Did you see the Starlings?

No. The wind was ferocious, so didn't see much at all!

 

[Jingling_Geordie]

I have a Robin visit my bird feeder daily. I’ve had the occasional woodpecker and lots of tits!
