What you got to sing about ?
Robin in full song
Went in the garden hide for an hour and for no apparent reason this Robinn sat on a dead xmas tree and sang his head off !. Probably because it stopped raining for 5 minutes !!

PS About the only bird I have ever photographed singing and not a tape player in sight ! :biggrin:

I was wondering whether that branch on the top left needed to be removed, but on reflection I think the shot would look funny without it.
