@jsweber Thanks, Scott.
@claireuk Thank you, Claire!
January 18th, 2013  
@emmar84 Yes, that's what I was aiming for. Thank you :-)
January 18th, 2013  
@emmar84 It only took two hours!
January 18th, 2013  
I hope you had a thick coat and gloves if you spent two hours out in this weather, next time get a better trained robin!
January 18th, 2013  
@emmar84 That's what I was thinking...
January 18th, 2013  
TWO hours? He's obviously capitulated, thats why he looks so cross!! Better keep this one for the next Christmas card, save getting frostbite later!! Fabulous shot and very well done!!

Like the composition!
January 18th, 2013  
very cute! i rarely see interesting birds in our area :(
January 18th, 2013  
sooo cute great capture!. our Robins looks so different here, taller and have red bellies not throats.
January 18th, 2013  
Awww what a cute little fella! :) Awesome details and colors! :)
January 18th, 2013  
cute!
January 18th, 2013  
Lovely shot of him on the water bath but it does look as though it needs defrosting so that he can have a drink! It is so important that birds have water as well as food and it takes a bit of effort to keep making sure that it isn't frozen all the time
January 18th, 2013  
I forgot to say that this is a Fav
January 18th, 2013  
Beautiful shot, he looks cold!
January 18th, 2013  
@rosiekind Thank you so much, Rosie. Yes, I do clear it off and give them water!
January 18th, 2013  
Beautiful shot. Makes me feel cooler just lookng at it. After the 44 degrees C here yesterday it is now down to 23 at the moment. Thunder storm last night but still not much rain. No wonder we have got bush fires.
January 18th, 2013  
Back to the bird table - you've taken some beautiful shots here, and this is no exception. A fav!
January 18th, 2013  
ncie capture, he looks angry!
January 18th, 2013  
Great dof, you have captured him perfectly.... I expect you didn't notice how cold your hands were did you if you were engrossed in getting the perfect shot?! Fav
January 18th, 2013

Awesome shot, Peter. The colors really pop against the snow. Fave.
January 19th, 2013  
Is this really a robin? It looks so small compared to the robins we have. They are really large here.
