Was just sitting in the window hide this morning when this Robin jumped up onto one of the perching sticks in the yard and sat there long enough for me to get some pics. I didn't see the little bug till I was processing them. :)

I think he/she has a nest somewhere close. It spends a lot of time in my yard. :)

Thanks Jason and Adi. Jason, it's a common thrush, so the same everywhere. :)

Birds gotta eat. Well done, Mitch.

I think realistic birding shots are all part of the game. I have a young house finch that appears to be fed by his father. I'd like to be able to record that scene.

Thanks Steve. I do like the natural shots myself, although, the bird on a perch with smooth bokeh are nice too, but don't help much when your trying to see where a bird really lives. :)

I like #3 most because you can see the worm better. --Rick

Thanks Sindri. This guy works over my yard pretty good. I'm sure the worm population has gone way down. :)

Thanks Downy. It's very unusual for this guy to get up on one of the sticks. I just happened to have the camera handy. :)
