I like this one particularly for the setting and background.  The bug in the mouth is a nice bonus.

Canon 7D Mark II
Sigma 150-600 mm at 600 mm
1/800 sec at f6.3
ISO 400

Thanks for looking.  Comments and suggestions are appreciated.

Good job getting the Robin off the ground and on a nice plant for a perch.  I think it's harder to get a Robin on a perch then it is to get a Towhey on a perch.  I like your colors, detail, and composition in this image.

Great setting, Allen, and a lovely composition.  I agree that the bug is a very nice bonus.

Sweet! Tough to get a robin on an interesting perch.
Really nice pose, and the berries add a lot.
Well-done!
