I had a bird hop onto my bike yesterday!

[PeteXXX]

Parked up after my Cannock ride yesterday, this little critter was hopping around looking for food.
For scale, the tyre is 26” x 2.35

 

[sight-pin]

Bet you thought he was robbing you.

 

[glasgowcyclist]

I love robins.

His wee face is like: "And?"

T’int a robin

Cheeky we beggars Robins, I have one regularly sits on my bars, its as if it knows the cat hates the bike and wont go anywhere near it(think she may have been run over by one before we got her)

 

[Levo-Lon]

Mr confident is the robin
There great when digging as they get really close and almost tell you to keep going,I need worms!!

And Mr blackbird

 

[biggs682]

Are you sure that's not the p fairy in disguise ?

My wee robin joins in while I'm digging out the compost bin. I always have a wee chat

Always had a soft spot for the Robin. I think their behaviour changes because they are starving rather than any desire to be close to humans.

Oh, I though this was a thread about giving people lifts on bikes.

And yet i've had a fat filled coconut shell hanging from a tree outside here for months and it hasn't been touched. Mind you there are cats lurking about.

It isn’t a Robin though..
Way too big. It was sort of Starling size.

What was it then? I've never seen a bird like that, that wasn't a Robin.
