Hi Bev, I just saw this now....what an incredible shot, perfectly timed and great DOF.

I love the English robin, the ones we have here are quite different although they do have the red breast too, not as cute or as tame as yours.

Lovely sharp image and well composed, with the background nicely out of focus.

Wow, this is an amazing shot and what a beautiful bird. You've captured the action so perfectly. Colours and clarity are wonderful.

Great detail and brilliant capture. He almost looks like he's bowing and putting on the show just for you to take the shot
