Robin

Recently voted again as the Uk’s most popular bird, the Robin is an inquisitive garden bird, sometimes referred to as the ‘gardeners friend’ due to them appearing when people are gardening and taking up watch from nearby bushes or trees (presumably on the lookout for any food disturbed by the gardener).

I am semi-retired after a career in medical sciences. I now work from home doing independent research and consultancy amongst other things. One advantage of this is that I do have time to indulge my interests including birdwatching, natural history, steam trains and history particularly ancient history.
