Ha Ha - those Robins are little 'characters' aren't they? Ours have it in for the dunnock that visits.
That's a cracking close up, the beard!
There are now officially two of mine. They were both dancing about and showing off on the path today as the snow swirled about and 'he' (although I'm not sure which is which) was showing her inside the shed door. I don't know if he's just sussed out where the food is kept or whether its a potential nesting place

Interesting about the garden centres - I wasn't aware of that.
