Male Red-capped Robin, Woodlands Historic Park, Greenvale.

Mr Red-capped Robin, such a beautiful little bird, and so photographer-friendly. Photographed at Woodlands Historic Park.

I missed most of the Robin season last year due to lockdown. As our excerices radius just got increased to 10km, I was able to visit Woodlands Historic Park and capture the gorgeous, lone male Red-capped Robin.

Lovely to find Mr Red-capped Robin still at Woodlands, Mrs is still there too so hoping they will be spending the summer with us as they sometimes do rather than migrating back to the alpine regions.

Just letting everyone know there is no need to comment. I wont be commenting for awhile but may post. This is a historic shot I've reworked. Thanks for looking.

Mr Red-capped Robin successfully hunting for some lunch, with I think, an Orbweaver Spider.

This little male Red-capped Robin is a very colourful little fellow who really does stand out against the muted greens and browns of the Woodlands Historic Park area. He is my entry for the Definitely Dreaming week 27 theme of "Colourful".

So lovely to find this little female Red-capped Robin still around at Woodlands Historic Park this week, such a gorgeous little girl.

These beautiful little birds frequent the conservation park we regularly visit. I took this photo of a male last year and liked the effect of the barbed wire fence.

Another photo of this darling little male Red-capped Robin, I think this might be my favourite photo of him (so far).

Is it just me, or do others sit inside on days like today (windy and rainy and horrible) and wonder how our little feathered (and furry) friends are getting on in the weather?

Also for Week 34 theme of "Strong" for Definitely Dreaming. Look at those abdominals and tell me he's not ounce for ounce the strongest little thing, he also has a strong colour, a strong personality and if you could watch him dive from a high branch to catch an insect on the ground you'd know he also has the strongest eyesight.

Male Red-capped Robin, Woodlands Historic Park, Greenvale. Lovely to see my first Robin of the season yesterday.

The male red-capped Robin is all bold and beautiful, a bright, vivid red and white with a striking red cap.

The female is more subtle, almost blending into the background till you notice her wearing the less showy but still gorgeous little red-cap.

The males are causing quite a stir at the local woodlands. I have photographed them often in the past but only saw the females on a recent visit.I was very happy to watch her feed and flutter about amongst the trees.

If you look closely she has the remnants of a spider in her beak.

This little Christmas Robin appears in the Christmas-themed monthly challenge section of the December issue of Artists Down Under magazine.

There is another image of mine included, as well as a Photoshop article I wrote that some may be interested in.

Male Red-capped Robin, Woodlands Historic Park.

It has been getting harder and harder to find birds, and specifically the lovely Robins at Woodlands, there seems to be less and less birds around. Yesterday I managed to find Mr Red-capped Robin for the first time this year, and as usual he was quite accomodating, not seeming to mind my presence too much.

The Red-capped Robins are such delightful little birds, it's so good to just observe them hunting and flitting about. Getting a few nice photos is just a bonus. Beware Red-capped Robins photos coming the next few days.

Another shot of the male Red-capped Robin from Woodlands on Monday.

Male Red-capped Robin, Woodlands Historic Park, Greenvale. This gorgeous boy was quite happy to pose for the camera last weekend. I do so love these little guys.

Sorry for all the Red-capped Robin spam, but he's such a photogenic little boy I can't help myself.

This little Male Red-capped Robin is the most delightful little chap, it's always a good day when I manage to find him (or him, me) in Woodlands Historic Park, Greenvale.

It's been a while, a long while of almost 2 years, since I've seen any Red-capped or Flame Robin. I usually have to travel between 40 and 50 km and cross the Yarra River for a chance to see one, so I was very nicely surprised when this lovely lady appeared in front of me during a walk in Seaford (only 25 km away and no need to battle the City traffic) a week ago. I hope there is a male somewhere there too or maybe even more of these winter visitors.
