Mr Robin

I very rarely photograph wildlife, but this little chap let me get my 17-40F4 right up to him at its closest focusing distance.  Happily sat there watching me snap 30 shots of him.

Just asking to be photographed......

Great shot, Matt, with the light landing right on its orange chest. I like the way you've included the surrounding garden instead of cropping it out.

I think that's the landscape photographer in me trying to take over!

Another shot of the same Robin.

Robins are very inquisitive and they seem to like watching what we are doing, more so than any other bird. There was one Robin that would literally follow me from one feeding table to the next, it wasn't eating the seeds, just following me from one table to the next.... Mind you I did talk to it all the time.

Beautiful bird Matt, the chest colour is stunning.
