Britain's National Bird

He stood quite still while I took a few shots and seemed to be listening to the camera's autofocus.
I only put my little Lumix in my bag at the last minute before we went out.

Lovely shot, fortune does favour the prepared. And it was a great choice for a national bird.

He looks so cute, what a lovely shot. I always associate robins with the UK so I can see why it was the favourite.

Lovely, capture, it's great that it's official, I've always loved robins. We have a nesting pair in our Italian vase, I think they have hatched but daren't get too close incase I frighten them.
