THE ROBIN AND THE ............ ? by markp

THE ROBIN AND THE ............ ?

From in the garden, the Robin is easy to see, but can you see another kind of animal in the shot ?
You might need to look closely.
Lovely shot -- yes I can see the spiral shell !!

Yes I can see it too but also it looks as though there might be a worm near the robin's foot. Fav for this lovely capture

Very neat shot, really y sharp and detailed. I would have missed the snail had you not called it out. Did you notice the snail before or after the shot, inquiring minds want to know?

@trm TR Thank you very much for the comment. No I had not seen the snail before I took the shot. He just rushed in really fast, took me by surprise, in his attempt to be a photo-bomber.

@warlokk Haha, yes that would be the easy way. Thank you for the comment. Basically time and practise. I have a large garden and its full of feeders, which brings in large numbers of common birds and also drags in more unusual ones. So I have a captive crowd to work with, and then use the same methods when out and about. Plus a lot of luck, sometimes after a fruitless day, just when I need to get going home, something jumps in front of the camera screaming "shoot me shoot me !!"
