The Gardenist Friend

People almost build this relationship with the Robins in their garden and indeed Robins are called the gardenist friend. Now why are Robins friendier than other birds? Because it certainly seems that other birds just fly away from us. So there's this sense that they are a companion if you like because they do tend to hang around. You can actually, I don't want to use the word tame, but you can sort of train Robin if you feed the Robin regularly enough.
