XVarior Posted March 12, 2014 Share #8 Posted March 12, 2014 Robins are my favorite little birds yet they are so elusive here. I envy you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
euston Posted March 12, 2014 Author Share #9 Posted March 12, 2014 Iduna, Jeff, XVarior and all of you showing a thumbs up, thank you very much. The robin was much more interested in the fruit than in me so I was able to get right up close. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
allamande Posted March 14, 2014 Share #10 Posted March 14, 2014 Incredible shots for their content, beauty, and execution. The robin is an absolute delight to see, I feel like I can almost touch the feathers. Just fantastic! Ece Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
euston Posted March 14, 2014 Author Share #11 Posted March 14, 2014 Thank you, Ece. Robins nest in our garden and they will come quite close but I’ve never before managed to get a photo from as close as this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fotografr Posted March 23, 2014 Share #14 Posted March 23, 2014 Wow. Very beautiful images and top notch image quality. But, don't Robins eat butterflies? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
euston Posted March 23, 2014 Author Share #15 Posted March 23, 2014 Thank you, Brent! Ah, that may explain why they didn't invite him to the feast but I think they were safe. Those Owl butterflies are huge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
