Robin
 
A brilliant video and undeniably it’s that of the beautiful Robin feeding on all sorts from the caged feeder. You can clearly see the Robin fly in off the garden fence and then fly back having fed on a variety of morsels. The RSPB entry for the Robin can be found here.http://www.rspb.org.uk/wildlife/birdguide/name/r/robin/index.aspxshapeimage_2_link_0
