Yesterday, when I was cycling on the Millenium Trail, PEC, I noticed the occasional Robin lying on the sides of the trail at different times and places.
As I rode close, they would fly up and into the Sumacs.
Toward the end of the ride, I got off my bike and walked it quite close to one before it flew off.
What I saw was a Robin with its wings stretched out, their tips touching the stones, not unlike a Killdeer pretending it is injured to lure you away from its nest.
The Robins must sit like that in the heat of the day to cool off. I've never seen this before.
We saw the same thing on a different part of the trail today while taking our grandson and our grand dog for a walk near Hillier.
