Hi Chris, the Robin looked fixated on something - cool pose. I like the striking orange on this fellow, it really stands out against the darker BG. Im fine with the perch, just enough to show what the Robin is perched on.

Chris a fine neat image, bird stands out very well on that dark b/g.

Nice shot, i like the lighting on it.
I have also been looking for the elusive Great Grey Shrike, i spent some time near Waddington Fell on Monday, but sadly no luck

Lovely light and perfect head turn. The dark BG really sets him off. I wouldn't have minded seeing the perch in focus.

Thanks for looking and comments.

A nice colorful frame Chris. I like the pose and the eye contact and the exposure and details look great. Nice Bg also and I too wish the perch wasn't OOF but not a big deal. Well done
