The Robin and I…

About a week ago a little Robin started to show an interest in what I was doing in the green house. So I threw a few meal worms out. I started dropping the worms closer and close until they were within a foot of where I was sitting. So I took advantage of this and managed to get some very nice close up still shots…

A worm in payment for a picture..

Over the course of the week I started to hold out my arm with a few worms in my hand.. The persistence paid off and on Sunday the Robin took the worms from my hand for the first time. Now when I go out into the garden the Robin is waiting for me. Today it actually started to fly around me before I even had a chance to get the meal-worms out.
I managed to shoot some footage of the little fella feeding from my hand.. You can see a small clip on the [1] UKGW YouTube video channel.
