A Common Sight

Murfreesboro,TN

Robins are very common in our area. Since they are ground feeders, if you are going to shoot one here, you have to set up and wait until one walks up, like this curious guy did.

Spring is coming if the Robins are around! A beauty!

Spring is in the air if I could see past the piles of snow..

Never see them here, sadly.
A very fine shot Michael.
Wonderful clarity

Thanks, Michael. Definitely much darker colors than our version here in the NW :)

Terry, just cropped him & re-sized.

A very unusual color, Michael - did you boost the saturation or is this the color of
the local Robins? Nice that they are so brave :)
