Hi guys,

Took this today; we were digging up some holes for some new fence posts, obviously this guy was after some of the other stuff that we dug up!

C&C would be really appreciated as I'm very new to this. I've PP'd all of the photos, mainly to adjust white balance and the like. I just wish I'd had a better background for #2 as he (she? I have no clue) was only standing about 15 ft away! I probably overdid the green on #1 though.

Thanks very much!

There very nice examples of robins, don't complain about your photo's too much, you cant exactly tell him were to go lol,
The greens are a little bright but so are mine when i got some robins a week or so ago, These

When your in a more controlled environment like your back yard try a prop or two and some food to keep then around longer for more photo ops,
then you can plan your background better, I'd be happy with these but again I'm bias i love robins hehehe.

Yeah, I think I'm a little overly critical of my photos at the moment. I love the shots you posted though - I also think they're great birds :-) Thanks for the tips.
