Mastodawn

An ode to the Fediverse:
@TwoClownsEating got me thinking seriously about visiting Portmeirion. And @Jess.Stetson clinched it by offering me a lift there. It was as beautiful and strangely interesting as they said, and amazing to start the visit with fresh feet since I didn't have to walk part of the way there.

My first encounter with a European robin and they came right up to my camera!

@dillyd If not made to be poked with finger, why look so pokable?! It's not fair.

@nixanadoo how about jiggled with foot?

@dillyd Only with the right shoes! But damn it, it looks like you could just scoop it up in both hands and moosh on it.

@dillyd European robins tend to be friendly. Also smaller than the North American ones.

@dillyd in my experience robins are not camera shy, quite the opposite in fact.

There's one in my garden that follows me around hoping I turn up worms or grubs

@Phiznlil they're so cute! I would dig up worms for them any day.

@_maleficentgirl
Ooh very nice! I wished I had some food with me. Pretty sure this one would have perched on my hand for an offering.

@dillyd Cute! I think pigeons in York are bigger, or it's some other kind of bird. Otherwise haven't seen any others up close. A robin would be a treat.

@dillyd very cute, aren't they?

Frankly shocked to not find a single reference to the TV show The Prisoner which was filmed there, though mind you the sixties are increasingly far away.

Did you stay in one of the quaint cottages the village keeps to rent out to visitors?

@DenOfEarth
I didn't stay there, just a day visit. There's a whole shop dedicated to The Prisoner merch. I never saw the show but the merch looked cool.
