A delightful robin poses for the camera at Queen's Valley Reservoir on the last day of 2014. Such wonderful little birds with lots of character!
Never tire of these cracking little birds so trusting.. Thank you for all your comments advice and favourites really appreciate them
Regards Clive
Went to the Yorkshire Wildlife Park with my daughter yesterday and got loads of shots which I am still working through, but I did also find one of my favourite subjects, a robin willing to pose, and in some nice light ;o))
Robin Hoods Bay has the best beach I have ever seen - there are sandy parts as well as a series of rocky scars that point out into the sea in various directions and provide prehistoric walkways for exploring the rock pools. Fossilised dinosaur footprints have been discovered along this coastline.
Robin (Erithacus rubecula ) scientific name) is a bird in the flycatcher family. The name is misleading since Robin-actually more orange than red. The robin is closely related with the nightingale and Bluethroat. It can build their nests between the roots of a toppled pine
The light reflecting on the snow underneath the Robin gives a nice added dimension to the shot.
Nice to have a giant reflector for free.
Taken at Slimbridge on Friday there with two of my mates for the day.. While the weather was not great for light it was very mild, and this winter seems to throw birds out of synch with the start of breeding in the spring this one seems in full breeding plumage!
The male robin sings loudly in the early spring, hoping to attract a mate into his territory. When a partner has been found, the male brings his mate tasty bits of food which she begs from him with quivering wings - this strengthens the pair bond.
Robin resting or sunning themselves as they do it with their beaks open and wings spread out just chilling in the heat on the woodland floor..
