Who is this beautiful pair?!

I was out in my garden early this morning and popped back in to grab something when I noticed these two land. I didn’t wanna disrupt them so stood at the open door watching them when the bigger one then just waddled its way over to the door and just stood staring up at me. After I a while I came out into the garden and they just followed me everywhere, didn’t seem spooked by movements even when I accidentally kicked a branch. I put down some seed which they happily ate in front of me and then flew off.

I’m assuming they’re some sort of pigeon but I’ve never seen any so beautiful nor so chill about humans!

Robin watches me from the shadows

This robin sneaked up on me as I was photographing wildlife and she stayed to watch for a while; I turned around and she was inches from my face. I was using my 200-500mm lens so I had to move back quite a bit to be able to get a good shot!

Fledgling Robin outside my front door! Already?!

Got home from work to see this little cutie waiting outside my front door. We have a Robin nesting box just under the eaves a couple of metres from our door and I saw one getting nesting material together a few weeks ago, but to have a fledgling already seems crazy! Mum and Dad are nearby keeping an eye on them and feeding them diligently. I’ve never seen a cat around here and as long as they don’t go under the fence, they’re safe in this little alley that’s gated off.
