I think I might move to the right so that you get the sun more behind you, also I think that a touch of fill flash would have helped here by lifting the shadow detail.

Agree with Phils comments here - would look nice if you got a GSWoodie on here though!
Thugs trashing feeding stations are a real pest - I have to virtually dismantle mine during the spring and summer months as anything left behind gets trashed once people start venturing outdoors again.

Hi Andy,
I agree with the perch comments, but still a nice sharp shot of the robin though.
Regards Chris.

Background is a little too dark for my tastes and doesn't look sharp on my monitor although I note to others it looks fine. I do like your composition though.
