Re: Animal Trust

A month ago I went to Titchwell and as always parked beside the Car Park Payment machine. I had hardly got out of the car when along came a Chaffinch and almost sat up and begged for food. I put some on the ground (always have some in the car for my feeding station in the wood) and while I was doing this a Robin came and wanted the food in my hand. It had taken a couple of beakfulls when a second Robin saw the first one off so that it could then perch on my hand and eat. I know that Robins and Chaffinches are rather tame but three birds within a minute was going it.
