I went for a walk to night just before sundown and the only cooperative subject that I found was that American Robin .Nothing special about it but it just remind me with the leaves coming out on that tree that spring was around the corner in the province of Quebec.
Note from Audubon Field Guide:
gray above ,brick red below.Head & tail black in males,dull gray in females.Young birds are spotted below.

Every living thing is special and deserves its moment of appreciation. This beautiful photo is a lovely tribute to robins everywhere. I love this photo. I especially like the background colors that tone with Robin Redbreast. Perfect color, exposure and depth of focus.

Hi Michel.- Un bella foto de este "Turdus migratorius" Los cuales siempre son muy cooperadores al momento de fotografiarlos. Me agrada. Luis52.

bonjour Michel

belle présentation de ce merle d'Amérique,
ils sont soit coopérant soit craintif, dans mon
cas je m'approche trop et leur met à l'envol

je vois que ton ouverture est à F8, tu n'aurais dù
pas ouvrir un peu plus pour laisser passer plus de lumière ?
