Feast of the Annunciation/Good Friday - March 25th 2016
A lousy picture of a wonderful bird. This robin occupied a tree next door for two and a half hours while I tidied around our garden, cut the grass and put up a bit of the outside furniture.
For those entire two and a half hours the redbreast sang its heart out. I realise that it was very likely not trying to attract me, but a mate.
Flitting away for about forty minutes, its return was followed by a further hour of singing.
Glorious!
I know I'm a heathen, but I'm guessing that I found as much delight in this as any Christian fellow contemplating the dually portentous events of the Annunciation and the Passion today.
