: Photos 
In a break from Robin photos, I did see a Wood Pigeon or two. This one was standing on the bank of enjoying what little sunshine was on offer this afternoon
On this afternoons walk, we mainly encountered Robins, so Robins it will have to be. But when they pose so well for you, how can you not oblige with a photo....
Photo taken at Rockland St. Mary in Norfolk, UK
