A brazen bird buzzbombs buddies!
On a chilly day in Edinburgh, Scotland, Amanda Pache was out taking a picture of her friends when suddenly — neeeeaarrrwwmm!! — a cheeky robin flew in for a photobomb. (Be sure to click the arrows in the picture to see the full sequence!)

One of the friends, who also had her camera out, snapped a few more pics of the brave little bird (click arrows to see all).
That’s one rockin’ robin, Elizabeth G.
How terrific is that? Lovely little creature.
Like the robin in The Secret Garden has gone beserk 🙂
Robins – absolutely my favourite birds, although sadly I very rarely see them.
What a perfect, prosh round body. This is like Angry Birds – Real Life Edition.
I saw a disapproving robin in my backyard yesterday. I pulled my car forward, so he had to hop up on the fence to get out of my way. He sat on the fence glaring at me, until I got turned around, and hopped back down. I didn’t know robins could glare.
The old song goes: When the red, red robin Comes bob, bob, bobbin’ Along.
There’s no mention of it fly in you face!
I prefer this pretty bird to the Canadian robins that wake me every morning.
😀 and lol! – Duckie!!! that is the sound of spring waking you up! Put it this way, yes, boid noises (good lord I cannot stand pigeon making -cooing-whoopie noises, *ughhh and arghhh* drive me bonkers) at times are annoying but… it could be worse– um, your neighbours could be banging the headboard against the wall. –?
FKA Walden… hahaha “whoopie noises”! Is this the one you’re talking about? https://www.bird-sounds.net/eurasian-collared-dove/ I always think they sound like they’re longing for sex… I mean “whoopie”!
Morning Fritz! I don’t mind that noise, that is a ‘song’– here, go to the “Calls’
sound here in this link. Ughhhh– they used to nest under my balcony at my previous place and pigeon whoopie moaning noises were incessant.

What a bold birdie! And that’s some super high speed photography too.
