Cheeky Robin
This cheeky chap, chapess, was almost within touching distance as i was filling up the feeder this morning. It was trying to get into the feeder as the food was going in so i went and got my camera and got the following.
Note it is not been cropped at all he / she was about 4 or 5 feet away on top of a washing line post. I reckon with a bit of coaxing it might feed from my hand.
