Robins galore

We would like to know what is the highest number of robins anyone has seen at one time. We have a resident pair of robins with the occasional interloper that is chased off. But today there were 5 'queueing' up in an orderly fashion within a five metre radius of the bird table. There was very little aggression which surprised us. It is probably because of the weather.

I'm sorry I had to postpone the walk on Saturday but we have been snowed in since Monday and it is snowing hard now. Anyone who knows where we live will understand our difficulty. The snow blows off the fields and makes large drifts in the lane.

I hope to see you on Saturday 14th at 9 am. (weather permitting!!!!)
