I know there are those who believe that a tame robin is a spirit of loved ones who have passed before. It's a nice idea, and some robins are certainly a lot tamer than others! :)

Passed this on to hubby who replied that it wasn't his grandmother as she would be insisting on being taken for a "run" in the car :) however, hubby maintains that the robin likes hubby to talk to it so ....

Hubby's little Robin friend has invited his mate the blackbird to join him in our garage. Now the two of them are following hubby around

@13lizanne - How cute Anna :). It nice that the Robin has a 'friend' = didn't think they were friendly to other Birds?.

Well they were both on the garage at the same time, but I was being mawkish when I described them as friends the robin isn't aggressive toward the blackbird but keeps its distance

You're quite right, William. Robins are among the most aggressive and territorial British birds, although they step it up considerably in the spring when their thoughts are turning towards their love life!
Gorgeous pictures, Anna!
