Yes, they do.
What do Dutch robins look like? We have robins here but they are not the same bird as English robins.

The fog at mid-morning is even thicker than it was before dawn. So I decided to have some "heart-healthy" (low cholesterol, medium-carb, vegetable-beef) soup for lunch. So I open the can, and in comes the KittenCat, asking for some. So I open a can of her cat beef, and when I have bent down to put the plate on the floor I lift up her front end and kiss her between the ears. And I say:
Ho ho ho! It's the KittenCat!
Here ya go! Whatcha think of that?
And I guess she thinks well of it, because she starts to purr as she curls down to eat.
Gotta go get my soup now. Test BG first, then again later.
This is so sweet!Made me think of this.
Wonderful, enjoy!It’s night time in the big city
Rain is falling, fog rolls in from the waterfront
A night shift nurse smokes the last cigarette in a pack
Listening to it now.
I started listening to it because of Bob Dylan, and then found out I really enjoyed the music as well, especially with the talking in between@Antje77 thanks for pointing me in it's direction love it, you are right about Bob Dylan.
Love it that you love it!I'm starting at season one episode one and going to work my way through them all.
Here's a little robin for you, photographed in the city of Amersfoort in 2016. (Have done that again many times since, but this was the first one I found). Give your cat some love for me!

This was a robin I photographed in my garden.
and here is another very soggy robin in my garden during heavy rain
Made me think of this.
I didn't realise they differed so much! Ours are much puffier, different markings... Live & learn. I miss having a garden, we just have a very bare balcony. Otherwise I'd probably be out there with a telezoom and macro all day long.He looks like the morning after! lol. Or maybe Sunday morning and then Saturday night.
@JoKalsbeek and @Bluetit1802 you have very good cameras and a good eye.
Here is an American robin. I did not take this picture but we do have plenty of these in our garden.
Robin Hobb's books... Start with Assassin's Apprentice and go from there. The Liveship books, Elderling tales etc all end up being trilogies that play out in the same world, and merge.Book 25 or so in the Valdemar series by Mercedes Lackey. Magical talking horses and kingdoms to be saved by ridiculously good people with magical gifts.
In my defence, I don't do television. Anyone know another wonderful phantasy book series I can lose myself in? This one's almost finished...
Most days I feel like the rained-out robin!This was a robin I photographed in my garden.

Most days I feel like the rained-out robin!Slightly miffed, ruffled, but still standing, haha. Lovely pics.... What camera do you use? I used to be all Canon, all the way, but they were just too heavy for me. Went with an Olympus system camera since last year, and now haul 4 lenses or so around... Which wasn't doable with the Canons.
Wow, completely different bird!He looks like the morning after! lol. Or maybe Sunday morning and then Saturday night.
