THANK YOU for alerting me to this special ep of painting birds! This is going to be one of my holiday treats.

This is a lovely post, Zabby.

I don't think I've heard any midnight robins near us (but if they're singing, I'm probably sleeping through it). We do get a few in our garden though and they're still enchanting, even though I see them most days.

My Mum definitely associates seeing a robin with my Nanna, her late Mum.

If we're out doing something together, she'll often keep her eye out for one. And then I can sense a subtle relief when we see Ms Robin. 'Aha. There she is'

Thank you Janelle. I've not watched the whole thing yet either so am looking forward to some Christmas viewing!

I imagine where you live now there isn't as much street lighting?

Ah that's lovely about your Mum and your Nana, thanks for sharing.

No it's pretty dark!

So I guess they know it's sleepy time
