Hi,

I think I have created the local Robin Mafia, they are defending the area from all and sundry....

Was using another part of this perch when this cheeky character perched at the top end and started singing for all his worth, couldn't resist a few images....

All the best

Phil

Yes - quite agree - an outstanding image with a lot of dynamism.

One suggestion - clone out/crop off the slight stem intrusion at bottom left

Why would you resist an opportunity like that!? Terrific.

Certainly that time of year - they're sat on the nest already here so loads of singing and squabbling taking place too!!

Absolutely fantastic, in all respects.

Without a doubt the finest Robin image I have ever seen.

(i do agree about cloning out the bits of wood at the bottom, that are just entering the picture)

You would almost never have to take another Robin image after this one, apart from the one in the snow. Lovely
