This photo was taken in the same manner as the first Bird in a Box photo, except more swearing was involved - black-capped chickadees are vicious little buggers that are the Houdinis of the bird world.
Isn't it funny how sometimes the most famously loved little birds are the vicious little buggers? Here it is the robin, beloved of Christmas card artists, poets and gardeners (because of their cute habit of perching on your spade while you work), but not loved by any other bird in the world except another robin - and that only in mating season!

Willow and Tess - aren't they adorable?
Introducing two of the loves of my life......my beautiful, little bundles of fluff, love and laughs, Willow and Tess.
Is anybody really interested? I am starting this blog mainly because everyone keeps telling me that I am very opinionated and I thought that this would be a good way of venting about life, the universe and everything without bugging other people. Probably should let you know that I am from England, and so you may detect a hint of sarcasm in my posts, if I ever get around to making any - as well as being opinionated, I tend to get distracted easily and I find it hard to finish anything unless there is a deadline. I was going to explain the bug part, but it is time for my afternoon nap.....

Nice work. :)
Its appearance belies its true nature - and that could be said of many;-)
