I took this shot last April at the Botanic Gardens in Memphis. A Robin collecting nesting materials...

I like the pose and the nesting material. I do wish we could see more of the eye however. On my screen the image looks pretty cold and the WB could be warmed up a bit. TFS

Thanks for the feedback Alex. I added +10 to saturation for this repost. Hope it is an improvement.

I really like the bird and the nesting material. Good look back pose. Agree that I wish they eye was more visible. The colors are off on the bird and the background. Also the white balance looks off as well. I think you could address this by adjusting the levels black point and midtones or adding some blacks in selective color. Also the grass looks too yellow to me.

I like your composition here Allen, and yes Spring has to be round the corner. I'm learning about color adjustments etc myself, so lots to learn... terrific behavior captured.
