Grouchy Robinson! by lynnz

Grouchy Robinson!

OK, I'll explain my title. My maiden name was Robinson and this crabby looking robin with his feathers ruffled looks like how I am feeling!

I usually work four days a week but have to work five this week because of my coworker getting fired and I'm doing both jobs, and most of all, does my boss appreciate it??? AND that's less time to take pictures! I'm fine, just venting a little!
Vent all you wish! The robin does look a bit grouchy, perhaps Mrs is feeding babies and unappreciative....... we all know how that makes them feel! Love the fence line and dof :O)

Fab shot Lynn, hope you are feeling less ruffled soon
May 15th, 2014  
Very cute! Now I see where the term "ruffled feathers" come from. Hope you have a good weekend.
May 15th, 2014  
Great photo! Sounds like a very stressful week.
May 15th, 2014  
It's good to have a rant and this one is well deserved!! It's miserable how little a person is valued nowadays. Hope things get sorted and settled soon.
Robin looks the part too!!

Such a cute capture! Nice DOF and I love the look of this fence!
May 15th, 2014  
Ooh! I know how you feel! That happened to me one time and I actually tried to handle both jobs for awhile but I got fed up one day and quit -- on the spot! I wouldn't recommend that but I got through it. Great capture of Mr. Grumpy, by the way. Hope you get some help soon!

May 16th, 2014  
I'd be irritated in those circumstances too. But you did get a great shot of this robin; excellent dof and bokeh, and I like the way the fence frames him. Fav for me.

Always good to have a vent Lynn. Still a good photo not many views of grouch robins about

Sorry to hear bout the extra work, but forge on like you brave little windswept Robin.
May 16th, 2014  
I can't blame you for being grumpy :-) I sure hope this well-deserved fav cheers you up! What an awesome capture.
May 16th, 2014  
Fab shot! Don't blame you for being irritated. The same thing happened to my hubby. It took about six months for things to settle down. He realized that he couldn't do it all and had to learn to prioritize. Lots of things were deemed unessential and were dropped.
May 16th, 2014  
Ha-ha!It does look grouchy!So grouchy that even feathers were flying off of him:) I'm sure you felt better after you viewed what you had captured!Fav!
May 16th, 2014  
Super capture, grumpy or not!
May 16th, 2014  
wonderful composition! I love the lines of the fence and the dof!
May 16th, 2014

Oooo I am sorry! I am having a similar type of week...or at least the last few days! Hope things turn around soon! IN the meantime this is a fabulous capture!! Love the expression!
May 16th, 2014  
It helps to let it out sometimes, I bet you felt a little better after that! lol Hope things improve at work, great capture of this little fellow!
