Someone had their eye on me.

    Found you! via Anna.
    Robins in the garden add so much to our enjoyment of it. I have one who sits patiently waiting for grubs, inches from my fork. With the sweetest serenade from the nearest branch after he has found one.

      I noticed for the first time, the other day on your blog, a robin sat on one of the rusty ducks.
      I know wild life cause you both pain and pleasure!

    Found you via Anna too.
    Lovely pictures, the Robins are never far away especially at this time of the year. I presently have a regular and an interloper who is intent on taking over the patch. It gets quite vicious at times.

    Another bump from Anna, Brian and a welcome into the blogging communiity :-)

    What brilliant captures of the robin following you around. I know how tricky they are to take quickly getting that twinkle of light in the eye that makes them come alive in a photo.

    I'm thinking you've got a creative eye in your garden as well as behind a camera and as you have made it in to the yellow book others are thinking you have a special garden. I look forward to seeing more and will add you to my blog list right now :-)
