This little fella was singing his heart out as I was taking some flower close-ups in the garden. So I quickly took a couple of shots of him using the lens I had on which happened to be the 100 2.8 macro, he was a fair distance away from me so i don't think it turned out that bad considering, although I had to do quite a bit of work in PS to get it to this stage!

Thanks for looking.

Awww! it's so cute! A little dark, but it was obviously a bad day out huh? Nice shot.

Strangest looking robin I've ever seen....lol. I dunno what kind of bird that is, but it's a good shot

It's a European Robin ... quite unlike our North American Robin, but a robin nonetheless.

Very nice shot under the circumstances, Paul!
