Yep...a North American robin, as opposed to those lil UK robins. You have a juvenile there, the adults have a full red breast.

The Robin is Michigan's state bird. We usually see them here in Florida during the winter. I didn't see one last winter.

Would you tell us the tale ???? Please.:)

Took me some time to get this one, but, here you go:

Description
Wish upon a Pike, also known as The Magic Fish, is a 1938 fantasy film directed by Aleksandr Rou, which was his debut and filmed at Soyuzdetfilm. It is adapted from a play by Yelizaveta Tarakhovskaya, itself based on At the Pike's Behest and other tales from Slavic folklore. Wikipedia

Adapted from four different Russian folk-tales, this early Soviet fantasy film tells the story of Emelya the Fool, who, fishing one day, catches a talking pike who pleads for his life and in return grants Emelya wishes for a life spared.

Well done, Mark! The story is an all-time Russian dream. A lazy guy goes fishing, catches a magic pike, and gets his every wish granted, which enables him to continue being lazy and marry a princess.

Haha if I want to eat I cook! I love my wife but I’d didn’t marry her for her cooking skills. Besides makes just one more reason for her to keep me around!
That's funny! My sons helped me in the kitchen and now my eldest can COOK! I keep trying to talk him into being a chef its so good. I taught him but he's way better then me now.
