Ready...... aim.......

Thank you for Iooking in/commenting on my shots. I do appreciate your kindness.
I caught this robin just as it was lining itself up with the feeder prior to launching itself at it. It looks so focused and purposeful.
The photo quality isn't as good as if I'd been standing outside. If I had been, there probably would just have been a shot of the Viburnum minus the robin! :-D
PS The Viburnum is flowering on schedule.
Brilliant capture! What an expression! Love this one!!

A lovely capture. The birds have deserted our garden even though I have put foood out.

His expression is priceless. Good captrue at the right moment. I havnt had the robin in my garden for ages. I hear him singing but as soon as I pointed the big lens at him (he was in a tree over the back) he flew off!

Lovely capture! What a great expression he's got.

Brilliant attempt! Its a lovely capture, in fact. (Unfortunately I cant encourage birds to my garden due to cats.)

Looks like you are enjoying your new camera and lens. I think I have a little bit of lens envy :-o, I see to get this shot you are shooting with a 300mm.

Oh and I’m still looking out for the robin, I feel this is the year he will let his guard down and I’ll get him.

Whatv a brilliant shot! Is that the same plant that is in my shot from yesterday?
January 18th, 2012  
Aw, thank you for the smashing comments, everyone. :-)
@natsnell Oh, yes, it's great fun, thank you. And Lester and I decided to do some S.K.I.ing :-). Good luck with the robin! You'll get him. Does Harry Cat act as much of a deterrent?
@clairefisher Thank you, Claire. :-) Yes, it is indeed the same plant.

S.K.I.ing ? Surly not skiing with a bad back! But I cannot think what S.K.I.ing could be?

Oooh,no cnot skiing, no head for heights, either! Spending the kids' inheritance (not that there's much!)

great, what a gorgeous litlle bird
are the female robins as pretty as the males??
January 20th, 2012  
@jenrobcarr Yes, there's so little difference between them that it's hardly noticeable.
January 20th, 2012  
@dulciknit wow in aus all the female robins are very drab compared to the males!
