Well Bob, even with two landscape lenses on two camera, this is one brilliant capture. The light shines well exposing the beauty of the plumage. The sharpness and details are well established and I like the texture on the wings. Well done and thanks for showing us this one.

Goodness... that is quite a red breast. You should try to catch one on the snow. It would really stand out. We don't have them here yet... neither snow nor robins... plenty of rain though! : P It's a nice capture... this harbinger of spring.

Congatulations on both the occasion and the shot! The technical qualities are superb as are the composition, colours and POV, which combine to make this one of the best shots of the American Robin on TN. I'm taking this in to my favourites.

Hello Bobby Blue, you are the troubadour announcing spring! I love those proud birds, they look like a knight by the way they walk on grass. Your picture is a fine one too, with fantastic colours! I'm a fan of your colours. We will be seeing them here in about a month. I am so anxious to hear their song, such a beautiful song. Et félicitations pour cette 300ème photo, j'espère voir de tes photos encore longtemps! Thanks Bobby!

Beautiful robin image. Color, lighting and focus are all good. The robin is a ubiquitous symbol of the Pacific Northwest and its increased activities is a harbinger of Spring.

Hi Bob,

It sounds like the US Robin is quite similar to the European Robin in that they are very curious and will hang around long enough to get a few shots off. This is a great shot and I haven't seen a close up on TN as far as I can remember. I loke the colours and the Robin's breast is such a vibrant red. A stunning looking bird and a great picture oif him.

I am pleasantly suprised to see a shot such as this from you, and what a great one. I really like the way the grass goes from corner to corner here, as well as the rich colours you seem to always get into your work. Here's to another 300 hundred..i wonder what you'll posting by then...

Prolific and superb work, my friend. Congratulations!

If I am not mistaken, this looks like your first bird picture on TN. And what a beauty! The American Robin looks majestic and beautiful. The background ambience too is wonderful.
Wishing you all the best for your next 300,

Hallo Bob
I am stunned by the clear and bright colours of this American Robin. This is indeed a beautiful and slender looking bird. The combination of rusted red, black and white is stunning and a perfect match. On the other hand I am also amazed by the legs of the bird, it looks as if it belongs to a cranky old fossil. It looks really very old and dried out. Maybe it is my imagination but that is how I see it. This is a excellent portrait with very sharp details. Thanks for sharing.
Kind regards
