Larry snuggles up

Best viewed *larger*

This young robin of his... this robin fledgling hanging around has no respect for elders, twice today he had a go at Larry, his so called Father... twice Larry was knocked off his perch & Larry didn't fight back, which I thought rather odd. I'm not sure Larry knows what has hit him, it's his first ever moult, the first time he's lost his tail. As far as I know, all birds generally disappear to moult in private, but Larry is staying for the moment, even though I didn't see him till early evening, as he had vanished during the day. So Larry decided to come & sit behind me on the bench, in a bush, close to me, like he was snuggling up for comfort & security... Feathery xxx's
