Balancing Act..... by shepherdmanswife

Balancing Act.....

Robin's don't usually hang from these bird feeders as they don't seem as agile as the smaller tits who do hang on very easily. I guess that the bird feeding tray that he usually frequents where he can keep both feet on the tray was empty. Do you think he was trying to tell me something? Like fill my seed tray with meal worms please!
How do you always manage to take such brilliant bird shots!

Lovely shot. I was so proud when I got my robin shot the other day as they are very fast moving and rarely eat out of feeders. Well done.

Very detailed capture
February 8th, 2015

Beautifully captured !!! my little Robin has learnt to feed from the feeder if the tray is empty and the coast is clear without any other birds feeding at the time

One of the titmouse was looking in my window today. I think he thought it would be a warm place to sit out the storm. Such a cute bird.

Hi fellow 70d owner! This is a superb shot! Can I be nosey to ask what lens you used for this? faved
February 8th, 2015  
Lovely capture.
February 8th, 2015  
@nicknac it is a Sigma 120-400mm. It's a beast of a lens, huge and heavy but I get nice shots. This one was taken through a window so not too clear!
February 8th, 2015  
@shepherdmanswife Not clear?! Could have fooled me! Thanks for clarifying lens. (Trying to decide whether to get the Canon 100-400 mkI, yours or the Tamron 150-600. Any view welcome)
February 8th, 2015  
Beautiful Chantal.
February 8th, 2015  
I think you're getting the evils Chantal! He wants his worms. Great shot. Fav
February 8th, 2015  
Beautiful shot...Fav.
February 8th, 2015  
lovely robin shot
February 8th, 2015  
@nicknac Nick I've got the canon 100- 400 mk1 which I love .... like the Sigma it is heavy, but gets some super sharp images. My bud just bought the Tamron 150-600 for his Nikon and loves it...would it be worth hiring one?
February 8th, 2015  
@pixiemac Thanks for replying. Hiring sounds like a good idea!
February 8th, 2015  
@nicknac personally, if the quality is good enough on the 600mm I'd go for that one as I'm finding 400mm not big enough,
February 8th, 2015  
@shepherdmanswife Thanks for the steer. I have seen some pretty amazing photos taken with the 600, but am torn not to veer away from solid-built Canon. And those white lenses are sooo pretty! ;o)
February 8th, 2015  
@nicknac I dream of owning a white lens! Your talking 1000's for one of those aren't you?
February 8th, 2015  
Nice capture. Love robins
February 8th, 2015  
Sam
He is keeping an eye on you! FAV
February 8th, 2015  
I love the position in which you captured him, also your focus and bokeh. Fav for sure. Did he get his meal worms?
February 9th, 2015  
Fantastic capture- looking right down your lens!
February 9th, 2015  
Great capture!
February 9th, 2015  
@tristansmum of course he did. How could I resist!
February 9th, 2015  
Wonderful capture! He does seem to be trying to send a message. We get robins sometimes in the winter. They like the leftover clove currants on the bushes.
February 9th, 2015  
Very beautifully captured.
February 9th, 2015  
Beautiful shot :)
February 9th, 2015  
Sweet capture! Nice detail and color. Your robins are so small compared to ours in Canada.
February 9th, 2015  
He does seem to be giving you a bit of a look. Lol Great capture!
February 9th, 2015  
He is making sure you don't take his food.
February 9th, 2015  
Love this shot...pretty little bird and love the colors..bird and feeder!
