Lunch with Robin

Posted by Johnny Cat in Animals & Pets on December 13, 2009 at 6:07 pm

HancockFor at least two weeks straight, UK tree surgeon John Hancock had a robin as his lunch companion.  The species has been known to accept hand-feeding before, but this was different as the bird actually comes into Hancock’s truck to feed.

“We used to throw the odd crumb towards him, but none of us expected him to join us in the truck every day. He will take anything out of your hands and seems to enjoy human company.”
Now the robin descends from nearby trees every day and lands on John’s wing mirror ready for the snacks they bring especially for him.

Mr. Hancock and friends made a YouTube video of “Robbie” and created a Facebook fan page.
