Twisted

I caught Sandy the ginger cat drinking out of the dish I'd put out for the robin. She'd leapt onto our picnic table just as the robin was having a look at the suet. I banged on the window and then went outside to tell her off. She was very cool towards and not at all interested in coming inside even though it was very chilly outside.

A few minutes later this thrush was hopping about very close to the house. I don't think I've ever seen one come so close to the kitchen before. I didn't want to scare it away so took some photos through the window. It's not a perfect shot but makes me laugh when I look at it.
