A little birdie told me ....

Robin Redbreast pictured today

 

Good shot Sam,my resident one has a lady friend all though she's not as bold as him she has started visiting the nest box in our garden, hopefully I will get some shots.

 

Beautiful photo Sam.I have a Robin who sings his heart out every day and comes to my bird table,but I can't get any decent shots yet as I have to try and take them through glass.Thankyou for sharing it with us

 

Couldn't get a brighter red if you had painted it.
Excellent shot Whis.

 

This one was taken through glass Kandy
I moved a potted Sumoch near to the kitchen window and hung the feeder onto it
The glass however appears to affect the autofocus, and my eyes are not the best to focus manually
I have also tried using a faster shutter speed because the little devils will not sit still for a minute (the Goldfinch is the biggest culprit ... darned if I can get an in focus pic
)
Any tips from you peeps with more experience than me?

 

Get some mealworms Sam you will have them eating out the palm of your hand



the difficult bit is taking the shot one handed

 

Excellent shots whis4ey and walnut!

 

Our robins tend to sit on the street light and sing away as though it is dawn..although it is actually dark still. Good photo by the way...breast is a lovely colur.
