I noticed that stain too, Don. *LOL* I thought the English Robin might have been sipping Orange pekoe tea and it got a little darker right by its mouth. But it is a beautiful bird so we don't have to worry. *g* I loved the orange on its breast and its body seemed more rounded than our native Robin. But this one is such a cutie. I just loved it!! A great picture, Jas

Yes, I was lucky to catch this shot Alandra. Robins are a bit like blue-tits and rarely stay still for very long.

Thanks for your comments, Whittler and Gunnar. Yes, the robins are very cute and very territorial, we often see them 'squabbling' in our garden to see whose home it will be. :)
