Some good news, one of my other Robin friends, Hedgy, has returned to his old territory. He went missing in the autumn, presumably lost the territory to another Robin, but is now back in his old spot, waiting for me to go on my morning walk and taking food from my hand. Really glad he's back! In .

My #Robin friends Hedgy and Hazel feeding their 10-day old chicks. They've done very well - last year none of the Robin chicks of my tame Robins made it past day 9, largely due to the exceptionally dry weather - food was scarce for both the small birds and for their predators. Hope they can make it through the next few days, when they'll be ready to leave the nest!

One the fledglings surprised me by taking food from my hand today. This one has also started catching its own food and seems to be getting quite good at it. Won't be long until it will have to go off and set up home somewhere, hopefully nearby.

My #Robin friends Hedgy and Hazel feeding their fledglings today (or in one case attempting to feed one of the chicks a bee, but it turned it down). The chicks left the nest 11 days ago, they can now fly quite well and are starting to find their own food, while still getting plenty from the parents. In

A collection of clips of fledgling European Robins being fed by their parents. On one occasion a parent drops a mealworm and has to pick it up from the floor, and on another occasion it attemtps to feed its chick a bee, but the chick refuses.

My friend Hedgy collecting food for his fledglings this evening. At least 3 of the 5 chicks that left the nest 9 days ago are still around, usually hiding in the hedge, and the parents are still feeding them. In .

My #Robin friend Little Mate chatting this morning in #Bath #Somerset #UK. His mate, Maple, is now on her second nest, the first one being unsuccessful. Little Mate is currently bringing her lots of food.
