Back in July 2024 when I came across this Robin I couldn't believe the condition it was in, but I did see around the feeders on several visits to @wwtworldwide.bsky.social Martin Mere Janet Kear Hide.
I think this is the true definition of #Resilience

Good Afternoon All.
Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme has been chosen by @alan678.bsky.social and is #Beakful.
So anything in the beak, the alternative is #wading #birds

Here's a Wood Pigeon with a Wood Pigeon in its beak.😂

Good Morning ☀️
Per @alan678.bsky.social, today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Beakful (anything in the beak from food to nest material) and the alternative is #wading

That's good because it's random we like, plus it keeps people guessing what will come next. And we don't even tell each other what theme is coming next, which also keeps it interesting for us.

Thanks Jamie, they can make any photo look good.

Rob Crank Photography @robcrank68.bsky.social · 5h

No Alan, i don't do things like that and i'm busy going through yesterday's photos 😊

Rob Crank Photography @robcrank68.bsky.social · 5h

You too Karen

Rob Crank Photography @robcrank68.bsky.social · 5h

That can easily happen with it being a daily theme Gary, but it is a good enough reason to head out. And always take some unique photos because our themes are random, and not sorted out in advance so we could choose anything.

Now for #SquirrelSaturday and a chance to show off some of Monday's captures at a site near Penrith

A day with these does wonders for the mind, body & soul
