"Bread and milk for breakfast,
And woollen frocks to wear,
And a crumb for robin redbreast,
On the cold days of the year."

Adding another bird feeder seems to have prompted the robin into new territorial displays🙄 There’s plenty to go round🤷‍♀️?Still cute, though!

Nice to see baby robins now. This is Francis Orpen Morris's "Redbreast's Nest" from his pioneering "Natural History of the Eggs and Nests of British Birds" (1853-56). "Nidification (i.e. nest-building!) commences very early in the spring," he tells us. https://t.co/ixXxaSBXDm

Good morning lockdown birders. Today's is Britain's favourite: the Robin redbreast. As Emily Dickinson put it:

If I shouldn't be alive
When the robins come,
Give the one in red cravat
A memorial crumb.

I call this one Bert Ward obvs. Stay safe . xx

A favourite poet's simple lines for children:

‘Bread and milk for breakfast,
And woollen frocks to wear,
And a crumb for robin redbreast,
On the cold days of the year.’

R is for Robin Redbreast. He looks like he has a lot to say.
