Keeping an eye on me

Keeping an eye on me (Erithacus rubecula)

The end of my route took me along a stretch of the Lade Trail along the fjordshore, just up to the first little bay, Korsvika. This Robin clearly "owned" that stretch of trail, keeping an eye on me the whole distance. Another birder I met seemed to be familiar with him too.

Keeping his eye on you that's funny he couldn't possibly feel threatened. This is a beautiful picture. That Robin is one of Europe's best birds. A course I don't know all the places where he lives but it would be extra nice to have him here in South Carolina.

Re ... Oriental Magpie Robin calls ... you can listen to the sound recordings I've added to the Opus Article, for some more varieties of calls and songs ...
