Then a quick dunk in the bird bath.
And he was on his way.
We don't often get robins on the deck railing so that was a treat in itself. Also, they weren't much for using our birdbath as they preferred a group splashabout in the local mud puddles.
I moved the bath last week. Perhaps it is more favourable at the far end of the garden.
I hope so.

I hope he becomes a regular visitor. They have such a pretty song - just the thing to improve any day.
The birdbath must be in a good location now. I hope the robins found a suitable place to build a nest, and that it's close enough you'll see them periodically.
Laurita, he was back for a quick dip in the evening. It's always good to hear the birds.
Bag Lady, I think it is. It's got cover from the crab apple tree and it's far from the house. I suspect they're nesting close by.
I love robins and we don't get any around here. Thanks for the peek at these!
No robins? Oh, sorry to hear that. You're welcome, Betty.
I have been enjoying the quail in the mornings. I love to wake up to birds. :-)
Listening to the birds as i hang out the clothes in the morning is my favorite time of day. They really do add so much to life.
My robins move in grand masses and do not linger. I see them so much more closely when I dog into the city.
Nancy, me too. Never heard a quail in the morning.
Messymimi, they sure do. I have my morning coffee outdoors with a lovely avian chorus.
Tabor, are you just a waystation to them?
Robins are so lovely. I like your peek-a-boo views of this little guy.
So true, David.
Thanks, Hilary.
