This bird was sitting in the middle of a hedge, this Lumix is something else for an aim and shoot camera...
My dear Robin...
My favorite subject is nature in every way, shape and form, that’s what I do the most, but also city life, and I like trying new techniques, like solarisation. I work also with black and white, and sepia.
EXPLORE:
Also, I’m very proud to say that thirteen of my photos made it to Explore. If you’d like to see them, please go to my Explore set.
TO MY FRIENDS:
Flickr has giving me opportunity to meet a group of wonderful people. Thanks for making me feel so proud of what I do and love. You know who you are…
ABOUT GROUPS:
I would gladly submit my photos to the groups that would allow me to see their pages and be part of them. Please, don’t invite me to groups that will show my work once, and by invitation. I rather be part of a group that will allow me to choose my own material, and decide what to put and when. Remember, we are artists, and very temperamental ;)
MY THANKS:
Thanks for coming and for viewing my photos. I appreciate all comments, so leave one, if you want to.
Have great day, and enjoy the ride!
Martha.

These were all taken on Hampstead Heath, February 5th 2012. All were handheld, with no support, other than my eblow on my knee whilst usual crouching. ISO ranged from 400-2000 as they were taken in wooded areas under cloudy skies. Thank goodness for fast stabilized optics.
The skinniest Robin I've ever seen! Good thing it tucked into the buttery Bakewell Tart pastry I left as bait...

The European robin (Erithacus rubecula), most commonly known in Anglophone Europe simply as the robin, is a small insectivorous passerine bird, specifically a chat, that was formerly classed as a member of the thrush family (Turdidae), but is now considered to be an Old World flycatcher. Around 12.5–14.0 cm (5.0–5.5 in) in length, the male and female are similar in colouration, with an orange breast and face lined with grey, brown upperparts and a whitish belly. It is found across Europe, east to Western Siberia and south to North Africa; it is sedentary in most of its range except the far north.
Bonding process - male has just fed the female. The size difference is probably due to carrying eggs.
Sitting out on the deck photographing Gold Finches, I turned the camera on this robin only to find it is helping to keep nasty critters out of my lawn. The robin is welcome to come dine anytime it wishes.
