Great image considering you just used a 1.4x imagine how good it would be with a lens :biggrin:
Nice pose and good detail-classic winter scene

An excellent little winter study of a robin, I would just crop off the snow at the bottom which lacks detail.

Ach, call that snow? :wink: I love robins in the snow. He's a real poser and the snow on the beak is great. I wish the greenery on the right was also covered in snow.

I'm hoping that in the morning it will be :smile: I've got some other images where the bird is perched on the greenery, which might have been a better choice in retrospect. Had some bramblings visit today as well, which is a first for the garden feeders.
