RE: "EUROPEAN ROBIN" -watercolour

in #art7 years ago

I have a great fondness for Robins. I have painted some myself.
I really love your watercolour as it reminds me of my little garden buddy, Ragnar. He follows me everywhere. You have really captured his character.

Sort:  

Ragnar is a Robin living in your garden? This is really cool! As far as I know they are migrating birds. I often see them in my garden and they are wonderful.

I must post a photo of him at some time. He is here all year round. He follows me from the front to the back, and side gardens.
He stays very close by and chatters incessantly, especially if I talk to him... I do a lot of clicks and "bird chatter" noises...he always answers. He will happily be only inches away from me as I work. He totally trusts me.
When I go out I call him and click, and he's there immediately. So sweet. If I don't go out he comes to the window looking for me.

Oh, but that's great! What a beautiful friendship you have with such a small and delicate bird. You have to dedicate an article to your Ragnar! :) I saw some videos about people feeding hummingbirds. When I was a child, I was feeding pigeons in my palm, but I did not know that a robin could be so friendly. Thank you for sharing this!
