Robin Day

Every year the robins, presumably on their way back from wherever they go in winter, stop by the house to raid the wild grapevine on the back fence and the neighbor's Brazilian pepper tree. An invasive species actually, and almost impossible to eradicate. The only one we've been able to get rid of so far we had to chop down to the roots and douse with bleach.

Right, so. Today is Robin Day. Technically it started yesterday evening, but they weren't in full swing until this morning. I took some photographs, which I hope will be appreciated, as I was bombed during the photographing process.

The robins that would hold still long enough:
