Great photo Amy....it looks so cold!

nice, and it DOES look cold. i'd maybe consider boosting the saturation in the robin's breast a touch, to help it to stand out ore from the background. but nice capture...

And I thought yesterdays Robins were plump. Your cropping on this and the snow falling are a nice finishing touch.

Fantabulous Amy, a brilliant shot, this is one capture i would love to get of a Robin in the snow. Your Robins are really quite different to ours but still as cute :)

@MaryB: Ours are the American Red Breasted Robin and are migratory. When they make their way back here we're usually doing back flips because they're our first sign of spring. Thanks so much Mary!! There's one more shot to go.
