Feeding Robins (in the UK) by hand.
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 тра 2019
- Robins are brave little birds. When they have young in the nest, or fledglings, they become very brave indeed. Feeding the ravenous youngsters becomes imperative, and safety takes a back seat. In this video I try to attract a robin to my hand within four days over the Easter period, and give my Grandson a great experience. Can I do it.?

This is lovely to see,your grandson is so involved in this. My older son is 42 now and can remember all the skills my dad taught him and all the stuff they did together. When you are no longer here this will stay with him forever and he will teach his children about nature as my son is now with his daughter.
I just wanted to come back to this video and thank you. After I watched this a year ago and I was determined to hand feed robins in my garden.
I now have one very confident robin that lands on my hand every time I see him. He even somtimes sits by my kitchen window in the morning waiting for me.
It took a lot of patience but definitely worth it in the end. My robin friend will even come down onto my garden furniture and sing at my partner until she feeds him!
So thank you 😊
Brilliant. Share a photo if you can.
I have to get some mealworms to try this. I have a few species of birds in my yard in New York. I already sit out there ,whistle and talk to the birds. The neighbors think I am crazy but I don’t care. The birds have kept me from getting too depressed with the state of things in the world. They are amazing creatures.
Yup. Interacting with birds is a perfect escape from the world. How many species are in New York? I would have thought there wouldn't be many as it's a city.
Beautiful birds and what a lovely way to spend time with your grandson. It’s so important to get the little uns to appreciate nature.
Very satisfying to watch! Nice build up of trust. You must be a very gentle human being.
Lovely video of the Robin feeding. Well done
They are fearless birds and fly down into the garden collecting all the meal worms it is so entertaining so early in the morning
The garden looks very lovely
well done sir I'm going to try this with my grandson nice post
If you can get live mealworms 'go for it'. This was posted 3 years ago, and my grandson is 6 now. He loves birds and insects and has become rather knowledgeable for a little one. He was with us on Monday (half term) and we had the robins feeding again...just not to our hands. Great experience.
Your garden is beautiful.
Lovely video and how nice showing your grandson how to feed a bird:) I see robins a lot and they are brave little birds. They stop and look at me and they will go inside the house too. It is loving how they take care of their little family too!
Swell done👏👏👏 I’m gonna try it now. If I can cope with the meal worms crawling about on my hands 😬 😂👍
That is usually what stops people.
Obviously needs real patience. Admirable. Great video
Thank you, this is awesome!🐣💜
beautiful
greetings from Slovakia
Lovely robins, beautiful garden, wonderful little grandson, interesting video! Well done and thank you for uploading. 😊👏
Wonderful video. Thanks for sharing, keep it up!
Great Work 👍🏻
Great video, thanks
thanks for the video! enjoyed watching this with my mum ;)
Very special.
I think it is good to see you teaching your grandson feeding robins even though this was some years ago. Uploaded do you still have the knack for it recognise forget me nots in the garden
this is more entertaining and fascinating than some david attenbouourgh documentaries
I agree!
Fantastic video mate
Robins can be tamed so easy this is a good way to do it by gradually bringing them in, blackbirds are similar, you have to be patient though.
Love your video. Its amazing how that worked. I will be sure to try it myself
I’d love to have a bird do that, but it’s not worth having squirming worms in my hand. Lol.
This is amazing! ❤️
lovely
Thanks for the great video. we (myself and the kids) loved watching. great job with your garden too. it looks like a lovely spot to sit out. Best wishes from Wicklow!
Really nice , think I will try this in the summer with my grandson, Thank you
Love your garden. What is that abundance of blues? Mid height.
Abundance of Forget-me-nots. Love them, and allow them all over the 3 flower beds. Not the Veg bed though.
I'm admiring the raised beds. Beautiful job. I'm used to robins but they're a nuisance when they fly into my bedroom looking to nest coz I leave my window open at night. You don't pay the mortgage robin so clear off! They love me digging the veg.
super
lovely video , what is the name of the white flowers in your garden ty
1 robin > 1000 cats
Good video! You have a nice garden, but is it just me or does anyone else feel bad for the meal worms?
Just wondering are you in Luton ?
Put a nest box up 👍
Keep strong. Dont forget that despite the evil in this world, God is full of justice, mercy and love.
Justice said we broke His perfect law - causing the world's previous perfection to be destroyed - and therefore we deserve Hell (like a punishment in any legal system but this is eternal as His perfect law is eternal too). Don't think you fit in that category? Ever done one of these?: lying, stealing - regardless of how small the object EVER, hating others - which is murder in God's perfect law, lusting (plus God sees our entire thought life). Justice says "the soul that sins shall die" - if we break one in thought/word/deed it's as if we're guilty of all of them. Quite simply, living by the law (which is doing everything perfectly) is impossible for sinful humans
. The law shows us that 1. We will die in Hell if we fail to follow it and 2. We cannot save ourselves BUT, 3. God's perfect, immovable law points us to Christ, who followed and fulfilled the law in thought, word and deed perfectly in our place. He did what we couldn't and did it on our behalf. He was then sentenced to death on a cross, and took our personal punishment for our sin, paying our penalty (like paying our fine) completely FOR us, and has given us freedom.
If we turn from the sins we have committed and repent (pursue the opposite direction of love through Christ) He will, overtime, recreate us back into that previously perfect image through The Holy Spirit which Jesus sends to all who accept Him as their personal Lord and Savior of their life. It's not about following the law - perfectly, as it's impossible - it's about letting Christ in to guide and teach you and obeying Him through His power (not ourselves as it's impossible without depending on His power and instruction).
He is our substitute in His life, death and resurrection. He essentially rewrote history in our place so that, if you believe in Him, it will be as if you had never sinned if you accept Christ's death as our own in our place.
He is in Heaven right now preparing a place for us so that He can take His faithful, believing children home with Him when He returns. He will ressurrect us from death when He returns, giving mercy to those who accept His love, instruction and teachings in their life, and give justice to those who refuse it.
He doesn't want ANY of us to go to Hell and die for continuing in evil and rejecting His way to life, thats why He died FOR us. Hes giving EVERYONE a chance, He wants everyone to take the free gift of salvation from Hell. He wants us to be His and begin to follow His life of love and service through His power and abiding (staying) with Him. So long as we keep our hearts near to Christ through His strength, strive to follow His will of perfect love revealed in the Bible, and let Him lead in the midst of (very certain) pitfalls and struggles, we will, in time, win the ultimate victory over sin, pain and DEATH through Christ. Even if you are willing to be made willing, pray for Jesus to come in and He will do what we can't. Give us The Holy Spirit who will guide us in the right way.
NOTE: You are NEVER too sinful or messed up that God cannot turn your life around through Jesus. EVER. Regardless of what you've done or what you're going through you CAN make it through Jesus.
If you have any questions let me know x
See if you can train it to eat out of your cat's hand. That video would get more hits.
