Jackie continued her path clearing in the Rose Garden today.
She resettled the white bench at the end of its completed footpath, then continued on the one leading towards the north west corner.
Perhaps it is the clink of the garden tools that has drawn to either Martin or Jackie – whoever has been working there – during recent
days one of Nugget’s descendants, darting to peck up treats and pay
attention when she talks to him.
This evening we dined on pork spare ribs in sweet barbecue sauce and Jackie’s flavoursome savoury rice followed by more of the rhubarb and ginger crumble with which she drank more of the rosé and I finished the Cabernet Sauvignon.
Great work, Jackie! That bird is sooo adorable!

What a perfect place for that lovely bench. And communing with the birds, no less. Just lovely.
Thank you so much, Dale
Jackie is a bird whisperer. Great photos of the robin and Jackie, Derrick.
Thank you very much, Merril
Birds are great listeners
Thank you very much, Sylvie
Glad Jackie gets to occasionally takes an opportunity to enjoy the garden that she labors in so diligently.
Thank you very much, Pat
Nugget’s descendant is quite cute and attentive
Thank you very much, Rosaliene
Nuggets descendants are just as cute and attentive as their predecessors, Derrick
Thanks very much, Ivor
Robins need no invitation to appear.
Thanks very much, Tootlepedal
I am touched by your attention to details and capturing these moments.
Thank you Derrick
That white bench at the end of the path looks so inviting! It’s wonderful to see one of Nugget’s descendants following in his footsteps.
Thank you very much, Liz
You’re welcome, Derrick.
What fun to see one of Nugget’s family in your garden. As much as I love our American robins, I think yours are just a bit cuter, because of their smaller size and those wonderful colors.
Thank you very much, Linda
It’s nice to see Jackie relaxing with her delightful little friend.
Thank you very much, Joanna
Yes, those busy-at-work garden tools can be symphonic!
A lovely sound! Isn’t ‘clink’ just such a great word!
So glad the little cutie is enjoying Jackie! 

for you and Jackie!! 
Nugget’s descendant is a cutie!
(((HUGS))) and
It is a delight to see the robin!
Nugget passed on his memories and one came by to let Jackie know she is remembered. Fantastic!!
That bench looks like a beautiful place to enjoy nature. It’s delightful to see Jackie and her friend, the robin.
I love seeing a robbin again in your garden.
Delightful! Great photos of living life to the fullest.
When we sit outside, which is at least three or four times a day, FabGirl talks to the birds – both in plain English and with surprisingly eloquent and fluent whistles and tweets. The birds do respond, too!
Lovely. Thanks very much, Ed
So cute how Nugget Jr. has bonded with Jackie.
Thank you very much, Laurie
I could almost hear the clicking of garden tools, accompanied by the birdsong in the neighbouring garden.
Thank you very much, Sue
Love your garden bird. I have a family of them myself. Started out as one five or six years ago. Now I have a family of 8.
Wonderful. Thank you very much, Andy
You’re welcome.
Jackie – the Robin Whisperer.
Thank you very much, Widders. I hope your op goes smoothly
Those are lovely photos of Jackie and heir to the Nugget dynasty, Derrick!
Thank you very much, Lavinia
So many birds !!
So lovely that you still have descendents from Nugget visiting.
Thanks very much, Sheree
