    Lovely photos. :blue thumb: There were two robins in my garden today, one on each table. It didn't take them long to start chasing each other!

        You can often see three Robins at a time in my garden and i thought they were supposed to be territorial...but they seem to get on fine:blue thumb:

                        Very sharp Yvonne.:dbgrtmb:

                        Sheal, do you see Hooded Crows where you are? they take the place of our black Crows in Scotland and Ireland but I'm not sure about IoM.

                              I've not seen Hooded Crows, but saw Choughs around nesting time a few years back in the south of the island. :)
