More Robins than in recent years

Yesterday we came across this European Robin (Erithacus rubecula) when we visited the family summerhouse. The snow was probably 30 cm deep and we just made it there. The Robin was not shy to come close to get to the feed. It was probably in dire need of food. Getting a good picture was not easy because of its rapid movements.

It seems that more Robins have been here this winter than in recent years. They are vagrants and probably annual visitors.
