A perky little bloke

White-browed Robins live in monsoon and riparian tangles along creek lines or coastal wetlands in tropical eastern Australia. They have an explosive call and quite a bit of character.

Rob,
I can see the similarity in body form, it must be one of those rarities where the colours are not so pronounced as they are in Europe

Still looks very nice though and a great capture

A fine bird and image. I'm always fond of understated monochrome type shots.

Doesn't sound like the easiest habitat to catch a bird out in the open. Excellent detail, Rob. Great image quality for that high an iso.

This image is a pleasure to view. Very nicely composed and captured with great separation between the bird and the background.
