Juvenile Robin

I spent a few minutes tidying up some of the front garden today, but, surprise, surprise, I got sidetracked.

A young Robin came along. The disturbed earth obviously smelling nice. There should be a few tasty grubs near the surface now.

So as not to disturb the Robin too much I slowed down and got down to its level. It very soon came closer and hopped on to the spade.

What I didn’t expect was for it to then hop onto my shoe. Cheeky chappy.
