Robin's are amazing. Often have them 'fly in' when I'm out near where I am, seem to love it when you stop and sit down, they've just got to investigate...!

They really are one of the bravest birds out there, they dont care who you are, i have had them follow me for ages even had one come into my shed while i was in it!

Lol, was waiting for the "poop" on your tripod, and wasn't disappointed!

Odd robins you have over there, haven't seen one like that before.

[JEEP]

That video made my morning for sure, I nearly spilled my tea laughing :D

Yeah my Dad has often had them come in the crib-hut on building-sites to pick-up the crumbs no doubt.


.... Odd robins you have over there, haven't seen one like that before.

Really? The only Robin I've ever known.

I just Google-Image searched "canadian robin" and came up with this, is this what yours look like? :

... which looks like a mix between a UK Blackbird & Robin to me :confused:
