Red breast

Not a great pic I know but considering I was holding the camera above my head and wedging it into a crack in a stone wall, it will have to do. The hungry little mite shown is a European Robin ,one of Britain's (and mine) favourite birds. I spent part of each of the last couple of days watching the flustered parents flitting back and forth feeding the growing family and I gained some respite from the hurly burly and worries of the ongoing general election....from such little things does happiness spring.
