Robin

I was training today on the dummy. It was frosty but the ground was nice and hard. Not like Somme 1916. When I train sometimes a robin comes and watches me. The robin is a small bird with red chest. It is very brave. I think it thinks I will churn up the ground for worms with my dummy being some strange machine.

Something odd today, however. The robin came within inches of me and would not go away. Its really trying to say something you sense. I waited for it to go a distance away and got some bread and threw it in another direction so I could carry on training, I wonder if the clacking of the dummy actives the worms that the robin wants ?

Cheep cheep.
