Hi Sachs! yes robins are around all year. Yours might have been looking for small worms & grubs that had come to surface (after you'd woken them up with the mower!) to feed his/her babies. If you want to come & mow mine I'll sit and watch out for the robins. :o)
Hi Robinia,
yep! I thought that about the worms! It seemed timid of the other sparrows. I threw some bread out but it was'nt that interested in it, just nosy. I've since found out they like dried fruit & nuts and worms :0) xxx
We have a pair nesting in the letter box next door, they come around all the time, although they do seem to drop off a bit at the end of summer but I expect they have babies now, most of the birds do.
