    I had a nice walk today and was lucky to see 4different robins (3hourswalk) whenever I see a robin I always imagine its the soul of my father paying me a quick visit to check in on me! Silly I know but just the way and today 2/4 robins weren't shy.
    My regular walk is canalbank and sadly no robins but the grey heron was back (after a few walks of not spotting) the grey heron reminds me of an old Chinese philosopher.

    Newwave. Lolie, tercel, Metorite and many more on this thread I hope you're going to enter the RTe competition mentioned by Odeta above...
