a tiny patch of orange

When I uploaded this shot of a juvenile robin I found that the few orange feathers on his breast blended with orange seeds in the fatball to almost form a camouflage.

Could he be 'big brother' to my baby robin I wonder?!!

Peter, thank you. This is taken nearly at the full extent of my long zoom which I understand is not ideal but it does take a big crop pretty well.

Sweet shot! Your robins are so different from ours. They seem so much smaller. Nice capture.

Yes, I think they are smaller - probably the most colourful common bird and are nominated Britain's national bird!

Cute and lovely captured.
