WORM! Though it wasn't early, it was mid afternoon! Always a sign of spring, the American Robin. Some of them stay all winter, or so they say!

Very nice of him or her, to jump up on this block of wood, making for a much more pleasing backdrop!

Thanks Dan! They have been here for a while now. The snow keeps coming and going, making it challenging for the Robins.

Very nice, Sandy, but I have to say the Robin gets a bit lost in the bg in that last shot. IMO.

Thanks Rog! He does get lost, but that's what I like about it! All the other shots were boring ground shots!

Thank you Ian! I couldn't resist adding him to the book!

Thank you! This Robin didn't mind me following him around, which made things so much easier!
