Description
Here in Michigan, not only is the Robin the State bird, it is also the harbinger of spring. Its spring arrival is hopefully just around the corner. The goldfinches have returned in their winter coats so I'll try to get a good capture of one of them soon. As always, comments are appreciated.

Robins, cardinals and blue birds are my favorite backyard visitors. Great shot.
I love how the colors of the robin stand out against the greens! Another beautiful piece! :)
What colours, details and DOf. perfec capture. You are so lucky to shoot that. Hugs
Very warm shot in the cold winter here, great detail. Well done.
I wish you well with the good omen at such a time where the severe snow storms affect you too I suppose. Great colour, clarity and DOF.
Incredible colors in this, amazing detail and superb composition! A masterful shot to say the least! Good luck with the goldfinches I'm looking forward to the image ;) Hope you're keeping well there. Have a wonderful weekend.
A perfect image. Excellent colours and light. Great job John.
The greens really set off the red of this great robins breast. Nicely captured.
Another beautiful Image Bravo John!
Oh yes, so beautiful picture on this bird and excellent color :)
ohhhhhhhhhh my friend Very beautiful picture... beautiful bird !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Very good work!! Roby ;O)
The robin is a hearty bird- here in NH there is a northern strain of these birds that winter. They feed on the red bells of the sumac and on frozen apples. I still look to the trees when one sings his comming of spring song. Excellent capture.
Marvelous capture!
the red feathers are so bright. it does not seem that they are the same here. very beautiful robin and capture. for 2-3 years my sister has had an albino robin(white over red) that visits her bird bath every summer
Awesome capture mate! The colour & DOF are brilliant.. Well done mate
Excellent shot. Hope they bring spring soon. :)
Spot on! Everything is perfect - the details on the bird, the colors - and I love the green of the needles....
