Have you ever been visited by a Robin after losing a loved one?

Yes, also my dad was called robin, so as far as I'm concerned it was rather apt.
I also like the sound of a happy one. I love opposite a couple of trees and every evening, weather permitting, I hear one singing his heart out.

Just before my dgm was taken to hospital we had discussed a holiday together with my dc. Every holiday (usually wet Scotland) we see a Robin and I always feel like she is holidaying with us.

Yes it's uncanny isn't it. Not just robins though.
Have you OP?

My mum passed away recently and I've had a Robin outside my house most days singing away as if it's saying hello.

Sorry for your loss.
It's nice to watch them. I say hello back.

It's beautiful, same spot everytime I see it.

Here's a robin eating mealworms from someone's hand:

Robins and butterflies have surrounded me since my dad died. In fact for a few days directly after he died there were butterflies everywhere, so much that other people noticed. There's a robin who appears every time I go to the celebrity throughout the year.
