Description
FOOLED YOU!!
OK, ok... I know, I cheated. It's supposed to be a Raven. But, when I came upon this lone Robin sitting on a fence post all by itself in the fog, I started to say bits and pieces of the famous Edgar Allen Poe story, "The Raven", first published in 1945.
So, after taking the photo, I was inspired to look up words and put a verse of the poem below.
**************************************************************
Then this ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling,
By the grave and stern decorum of the countenance it wore.
"Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou,"
I said, "art sure no craven,
Ghastly grim and ancient raven wandering from the Nightly shore- Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night's Plutonian shore!" "
Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore."
**************************************************************
Happy April Fool's Day!
Thanks for the visit -

Ha -- perfect for April 1. Robins have to be the world's optimists to stagger about in the cold pretending Spring is coming. But eventually they are right :o) Another fantastic shot that is atmospheric to say the least.

I think Mr. Poe is turning over in his grave! ;'P I really love the monochromatic misty scene you captured here, and the forground fir, receeding fence and distant trees really give it a sense of depth.

Great shot, and the fog adds so much too. B&W a good choice. Nice low angle.
