2 amazing [to me) exents in Garden

[Connor7]

Hi everyone!

First of all we saw a Robin eating food out of the fat ball feeder, returned several times and was actually getting food out. I don't know if this is common but its the first time I've seen it. Maybe he felt left out on the ground and actually wanted a decent meal for once

And secondly, We had the sprinkler out in the garden and a dove started walking towards the sprinkler and was getting blasted with water. The dove actually fluffed up its feathers and opened one of its wings and was cleaning under its wing. It then turned around and repeated with other wing

Maybe these are common sights but it was certainly an extra ordinary day for me [the camera lay forgotten in bedroom]

Thanks for reading

Connor

Neither events are uncommon, particularly the bathing. Always great to watch behaviour like this.
