I don't have problems with robins, but my cats have problems with swallows swooping down and attacking them. They don't like them to be anywhere in the middle of the garden, but leave them alone when they're on the edges - weird! When I was small, my father called a piece of the privet hedge that always grew first and higher than the rest - Jo. There are some funny people about - lol.

Weirdly, the robin doesn't seem at all bothered by our three cats, who are allowed to sunbathe unhampered in his territory. They seem equally disinterested in him too!
