What ! No birdseed ?

This little robin lives at the RSPB Nature Reserve at Middleton Hall Lakes. Very friendly, he hangs around at the end of the woodland walk and draws attention to himself. He's often individually fed - and you may remember him from a previous blip of mine, when he was eating from the hand of
The Brady Bunch back in June.
He wasn't impressed as we hadn't taken any snacks for him.

I went over there for a short walk with a good friend of mine who I used to work with in the 1970s. The RSPB were ceremonially opening a new hide and there were lots of very official looking people. We were lucky and it didn't rain until we got into the car to go over to Buzzard's Valley Vineyard for lunch. It was great to catch up.
