While sitting on the beach deck, at the cottage on Saturday...
Enjoying the late afternoon sun...
After a splendid day of raking...clipping...raking...carrying...walking...
This most handsome specimen, put on a lovely show for us...
He was closer to the cottage, so I zoomed in...
He was posing on the platform feeder...
Ever vigilant of his/her surroundings...
Listening...watching...
Suddenly...he/she jumped down...bob bob bobbed across the lawn...
Came to rest in this position...
Aren't Robins just an incredible resilient Bird??
I never tire of their arrivals in the late Winter and early Spring...
Their beautiful songs as they grab the last nibble late into the evening...
I must get the BIG birdbath out this weekend at the cottage...
Because the second favorite thing that a Robin loves to do...
Is...
Take a bath.....♥️
~~~~~~~~~~~
The beautiful weather continues here this Tuesday...
Thank you all for all your kind comments about Miss V and her seeds...

I just love watching the robins. They sure are busy hopping and bobbing around the garden these days ... little baby robins soon :)
ReplyDeleteHopefully no sweet blue eggs broken....:o(
DeleteWonderful close-ups. I just love robins. Sonething so familiar and home-y about them.
ReplyDeleteSuch great weather we've been having. All that sun! Yay!
I think I will take a ramble around the Distillery and find something yummy for a treat. Enjoy Miss V and baking tomorrow!
Yes...everyone knows the Robin....the British ones are really small and cute..ours are more regal!
DeleteWhat did you treat yourself to?
Ended up having delicious sushi!
Deletebeautiful photos and lucky you to have such a beautiful spot to enjoy them!!
ReplyDeleteYes Laurie...I am a lucky gal!
DeleteHe sure put on a show for you, Linda!
ReplyDeleteHi Blue!
DeleteAll he needed was a cane and top hat!
How are you doing?
I have not visited...I should!
Haven't seen a robin in Edmonton yet, but I'm sure it won't be long now.
ReplyDeleteReally? I find that kinda odd.....
DeleteWe have that song here too . . . it is Bristol City football team's song.
ReplyDeleteYour Robbins are much larger than our's but their behaviour seems similar.
Beautiful photography.
Enjoy Wednesday . . . :)
Hi Eddie....
DeleteKind of like the Notre Dame fight song! Boyfriends fav team!
I love the British Robins...so cute!
Oh I will....no worries about that!
Great pics of the robins. I love hearing their chirp and song. I heard a Killdeer on Sunday and the Tree Swallows have returned and checked out the birdhouse. Have a great rest of the week Linda! xo Pam
ReplyDeleteMe too Pam...don't think I know the Killdeer... Must look that up!
DeleteSpectacular photos of Mr. Robin!
ReplyDeleteI love that afghan you're making...my favorite! She's going to be so
happy with it!
Thanks Betsy....like you, I do love bird photography!
DeleteYou remember the afghan? Gosh..I started it in February...got another row of edging done tonight...
I know she will be happy...she is a good girl♥️
Great photos, Linda! Have fun with your baking partner, tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteThanks Laurie..will do!
DeleteLovely shots, Linda! I love robins. They are such sweet, delightful birds. And they sing so beautifully!
ReplyDeleteI agree on everything!
DeleteI always look forward to your lovely photos and "storyline." I think Miss V. might be ready for an outing with her nana and grandpa to Ripley's Aquarium this summer, what do you think? Such a fun place to visit! Lots of excitement here today, I had a letter to the editor published in the Nat'l Post! Enjoy Miss V. tomorrow and take care...
ReplyDeleteShe has been twice already!!! Such a social butterfly! We would love to take her there...
DeleteGood for you! Would I be able to find that online? Give me an idea of where to look!
Lovely robin pictures. I always get excited when I see my first robin because they show up so much earlier than other birds (and they are easy to spot!). What's on the menu for tomorrow? -Jenn
ReplyDeleteNot sure yet Jenn...keeping my options open! hahaha! Enjoy your day!
DeleteRobins are always so handsome and regal looking. Your robin looks so sleek too! We have a pair of chubby robins nesting above the drainpipe coming off the roof. Maybe they are finding a fattening supply of worms in my yard. I love their song too, and I remember how loud they were when I was young and they would be singing before the sun came up in the summer (way back when I would actually sleep in!). I hope you're enjoying your V-Day!
ReplyDeleteWendy
I thought he looked thin too!
DeleteWe had a great day....thanks Wendy!
Lovely photos of the beautiful Robin. He looks very pleased to have his photo taken. Like the Robins we have where I am, they are such characters.
ReplyDeleteHi Wendy...Welcome! The robins are a real favorite...
Deleteyou take the best bird pictures of anyone i have ever known.
ReplyDeletei think mister robin (i believe the mrs aren't as vibrantly colored alas. sigh! what's new?)

and food. oh yes. food pictures. i forgot food. oh. and sunsets. yes. sunsets for sure.
good grief. i guess you're just the best. period. xo♥
Hahaha! You kill me Tammy! But...I love you for it! I do believe you are my biggest fan.....♥️
DeleteI love the handsome Robin! Can't wait to see the ta da!!!!
ReplyDeletexo Kris
OH my Kris...I have been at this for over 2 months! I can see the light at the end of the tunnel!
DeleteThe robins are so happy now that the snow is gone.
ReplyDeleteThey are a beautiful bird and I am always glad to see them bobbing about.
Is Miss V a fan of birds as well as flowers?
:0)
Hi Martha....
DeleteOh yes she sure does! We watch them at the feeders...which she helps me fill...while we eat lunch!
Robins always mean spring is truly here! Wonderful photos - it was like he was posing just for you! Scrolled down to see Miss V and her seeds. Can she get any more adorable? It's so nice that you are teaching her gardening. Sweet, cherished moments. <3 xx Karen
ReplyDeleteI will be singing the Red Red Robin song all day long . . .
ReplyDeleteIt's in my mind for good . . .
Funny how a song will do that . . .
Looking foward to seeing the birthday gift . . .
And always . . . Miss V . . .
