    Goldcrest, about 10 minutes after picking her up and bringing her into the house a robin came into the house through a slightly ajar door to check all was okay.

    Goldcrest is in out of the cold now in a big Amazon cardboard box with a bit of the lid open and will be out in the fresh air tomorrow.

    Bright as a button this morning after a bit of warm rest and relaxation.

    Flew to the nearest bush not a bother once the door was open.

    Was taking static photographs of this robin in poor light today when I noticed it attempt to try and catch something in the water. The robin repeated this a couple of times before it saw me and then flew off. When I looked at the photo’s at home I realised the robin was attacking its reflection in the flowing water. Photo’s not the best but never saw a robin do this before.

    it was very hard to get a clear shot through the trees,
    3 Grey Herons and what I think is a little egret in the tree tops enjoying the sunshine.
