It was a nice warm day here yesterday, and in the evening the robins returned to my backyard.

Melvin,
It is nice when the birds start returning in the spring.
I like the alert pose of the robin and for the most part the setting too except for some of the areas that appear a touch bright. If you have more space I think having more room above the head and on the right side would balance the comp a little better, just my personal tastes. The robin looks a bit soft.

NIce setting and pose. Ideally would wish for a bit more separation of the bird from the the environment (perhaps a lower angle) and I agree with Mia's assessment as well. Given the light you had the exposure looks spot on
