Thanks Ron, Its a European Robin quite a bit different than the US Robin I gather, its about the size of a Sparrow.

Cheers

Nick -
Nice series but is #5 really a robin? The robins over here are sure different.

Beautiful series Nick. Love the LTT. :)

You ought to see the AUS Robin. Looks like the UK robin but with a yellow breast. :)

Good shots ... thanks for sharing.


Comments and crits are much appreciated.
