Slow motion robin flies high on Facebook


Slow motion footage of a robin coming in to land on some food has been seen thousands of times online.

Rob Hall, from Kenilworth in Warwickshire, filmed the bird launching itself off a wall after it was attracted to his jar of food.

He’d spotted the robin in his garden and after some online research, bought some meal worms to hopefully get the red-breasted favourite to come closer.

After a couple of weeks, the robin became confident to fly down towards the food.

“He’s a little character, and now he generally sits on the wall waiting for his food, which is fantastic,” said Mr Hall.

“I put this on the local Kenilworth Facebook page and the response was great.

“Now, it’s had more than 61,000 views on the BBC Midlands Facebook page – and I certainly was never expecting any of this.

“People have got in touch saying they are going to try it and it’s just lovely that this is a little film that’s made so many people happy.”
