These little robins can be very confiding and they have the habit of clinging to tree trunks while they survey for food.

Rob, that image is a beauty. Fantastic detail and colors. Super perch and quite nice choice of dof. Send this robin to the states, what a pretty bird!

Lovely little bird - great pose, nice eye contact and BG.
I'd suggest moving him down in the frame a bit, leaving more room at the top

Interesting color pattern for a Robin. I like the head turn for the good eye contact, very nice composition as well, way to go Rob.

Lovely colors here. The purple and yellow set against green is very appealing. Great, simple perch and nice head turn complete the image.

Great shot Rob, looks terrific for iso 3200. Did you run any noise reduction on it?
