Took these shots in the snow just before Christmas at Capel Curig Snowdonia N Wales... The Robin was a willing subject, having been to this spot on many occasions with titbits of food for him, but with the bad light in the snowy conditions most of the shots were taken with flash, on my 5D with the 580 EXII on a -1 setting. Lens used was the 100-400 f4.5 canon.

C&C Welcomed.

Rob

The Shivering Robin!

Nope; to the best of my knowledge they don't make it over here, we just have the American Robin here:

Hi Rob, great captures. I have many shots of Robins but none as good as these. Well done, and thanks for sharing.
