Oh you men ..

Terrific photos, Bb. I chuckled all the way through. Your captions are so apt, they really bring the subjects to life on the page.
Luvvit!!

Very good....made me smile :))

That was brill, could'nt stop laughing .

Oh Ray, as ever a wonderful Blog. Love the blackbird, lol.
We've seen some in our garden spread out - I thought they were sunbathing.
Your baby robin is bigger than Rocky - must be all the mealworms and what is he doing on the bark - dusting himself.?
Fantastic shots that we come to expect, they really are amazing. Thanks, Dawn

Thanks all...they lie in wait now for us to come in from work,and demand mealworms.Have a pot ready re hydrating i
n the porch ! Is worse than a full time job ! Lol
Dawn...thats Rocky sunbathing..or trying to ! Lol

OMG i laughed all the way 2 here Jane/Ray LOL Another Fab Blog along with some Brill Photos :) I bet your relieved Ray 2 see that Men Falling 2 Sleep & getting worn out is a Nature Thing :) lol

Yes Jacque...and women waking us up and saying "get back to it you light weights " LOL

Brilliant blog. I've seen birds making themselves comfy on the grass and borders but never on a table or chair!! Great to have captured it on camera.

AAAAAawwwwwwwwww Poor U Ray getting all woken Up :) lol

Thanks Lily2...must provide a cushion next time !Lol

Am away with the birds Jacque !

Yes iv Noticed that already Ray lol :) I wonder if Jane Knows yet ? LOL :)

Thanks Bonkers. A brilliant and excellently illustrated blog. I hope all the women out there take note of the plight of us males. The blood sweat and tears we shed for them never seems to be appreciated and the result can be seen in the pic of the robin all in spread eagled on the floor. A position I might add, which is not unfamiliar to me.

fantastic blog and photos yet again.
i love watching birds trying to take it easy.

John asked me tonight if I would like to swap places with him .......

Lol....Toto...most of the women seem to have missed the poor male robin trying to take a break !! Typical..only see what they want to see.Unless of course WE try to take a break! They never seem to miss that !

Thanks Seaburngirl..........

OOOoooooooo My Heart Bleeds 4 all u Males out there ,Its such a hard life when us women dont miss a Thing lol :)

We have built in radar you know Ray/Toto - dont we Jacque but I guess they know that already, lol.

LOL im sure they do Dawn :)

Yes ladies..that radar allows you to home in when we least expect it ! Lol

LOL im off now Jane/Ray sleep well XXX

Sleep tight Jacque..you women need all the rest you can get ! Lol

After looking after u men of cos we do ;) lol :)

Thought you were off to bed..had to come back for the last word ! x

Brilliant as usual Bb,love the photo,s and your little quips always make me smile...........

Thanks Lincslass..we seem to have some real natural players here !

Thanks for the laugh Bb once again your captions really do bring the photo's to life (your a natural) and we men do have it rough all work and no play its a hard life, I did score one for the boys today though I cleaned the WHOLE bathroom and hoovered ALL the hall, stairs and landing and I did'nt have to be asked twice ... how about that girls?

VERY impressed Bob!!! How long did it take you - 5 minutes?.....only joking, please can you have a word with my husband as he's about to retire and needs to get in training. I don't think housework is anywhere in his retirement plans!

Obviously that blackbird is a male but how do you know that robin is too? Could be a female doing all the work. Seriously though, IS there a way to tell the difference?

lol ah BB that was just excellent. your garden is brilliant with so much going on in it .

Hey Lily have you been talking to my wife? Actually it took me 15 minutes ..... with a 10 minutes tea break hehehehehe
As for the Robins I think I am right in saying that the bird that is the dullest is the female, correct me if I'm wrong Bb :o))

Superb blog and photo's....cheered me up on what was a not so good day for me....thanks.

great blog again BB, is that a door mouse in pic, bigger ears for a normal mouse, im loving your blackbird, so cute and cheeky to :o)

I'm not getting involved in the male/female 'who works hardest' argument - I KNOW it's us females! Love the photos and the captions - brilliant blog, really made me chuckle.

Smashing Bb.

Thanks Eileen Phil .Sanbaz and Paul....

Lily and Bob...technically,and in all the books sexes are alike but seeing as how the males defend their terretories it stands to reason that their plumage sometimes appears to be more red !
Gee you would say that Lol

San...its a fieldmouse !

Not sure if we won that round or not Bonkers. Can you ask the ref for his score card?

Think score about even Toto..Bob certainly held his corner against Lily ! Lol

Well done Bob. We need you.

thanx BB, dont know what the tiny mice we get are then, im sure they dont have long ears like yours,

Yayyyy!! I do the washing up every night too as I cannot stand pots hanging around for ages, but I have to have pink marigolds on as my poor delicate hands cannot stand water too hot! ........hehehe now THERE'S a blog pic !!!
How do we stand now Bb gotta be infront a midges :o)))

These are wood mice Sanbaz ..not like house mice which duller grey if you see them outdoors more likely to be field mice.

Ha Bob think so but probably below most other forms of life esp as they can produce sperm in a lab ..someone asked what are men for then ? I would say well anything with a plug on lol

Ha ha oh yes I can do plugs too :o)))) earlier (very earlier) today my daughter phoned us and said "Daaaaad! I've got no power .... help!" so off I trots in me slippers and when I get there its just a circuit breaker tripped, hmmmm I suppose thats what Dad's are for, but I did show her what to do if it happened again.:o)

Great Blog BB.....love all your wildlife photos...........

That's what Dads are for Bob, why bother to learn how to do it yourself when it's so much easier to get Dad round. We've got a daughter like that too. Really you men love being indispensible, don't you?

No!

Great Pictures bonkersbon. x

Great blog - really enjoyed it - as I was watching it my son peered over my shoulder and said "is it a bird, is it a plane...!!"
Typical man!

wounderful pics

Thanks for all your lovely comments.Just a quick update..one week on and all the robins doing well !

I've been away Bb and have only just seen your blog...it made my day..lol.....wonderful, thanks.....:>)

What a brilliant blog Bb great sense of humour made me smile heeps.

hahahahahahahaha! You've done it again, Bb! Wonderful blog and pics!

Stereotyping doesn't apply here, role reversal definitely works, lol ! Your blogs, illustrated with such fab pics, are a real tonic. Reminds me of a work colleague who has a great talent - he takes the Dilbert cartoons from the newspaper and edits the captions to suit people and situations at work. Even the grumpiest folks/victims there have to laugh at the outcomes! Fab! :-)

Thank you - glad it raises a smile not hard when such characters in the garden.Often asked how do we get so close but these pics show they just pay us no heed !

Oh yes David know the one you mean cant do anything right for doing wrong ..thats a real talent if he gets the grumpy ones to smile .

love your blogs your photos are excellent Keep them coming

Thanks Donnah.............

superb, good laugh and great pics.

brilliant and highly original!

Thankyou Usernut and Falco............

BB, late again, I only just found this one. Geat laugh, you should be in Hollywood making millions writing scripts.

Thanks Doctorbob! Nearly finished "Rocky" 2...the sequel !
(Rocky being our resident robin! )

Rockin' Robin! LOL! :-)
