Looked out of the window this morning and spotted a green woodpecker on the bird feeder. Rushed off to get my camera but as I readied to take the photograph, Milo shot outside barking and it flew away. Drat that dog. Still, at least the camera was ready when this little chap turned up…

Great capture of a beautiful setting. This is certainly a pretty bird. I wonder what it is…
Thank you! It’s a robin – seems to feature on lots of Christmas cards here in the UK
🙂
Love this little guy, but I’m looking forward to seeing a picture of the green woodpecker. There’s nothing like that in this neck of the woods that I’m aware of. Come to think of it, our robins don’t look like yours either. Your robin looks like our chickadees, but all dressed up for the festive season.
The woodpecker came back yesterday but again I missed him- wasn’t in the room with the camera! Need to keep it in my pocket all the time 🙂
I love the European robin; they get featured a lot in the BBC Beatrix Potter videos.
They are fearless little birds, I love them.
