This could be the most overlooked backyard bird there is (at least around my house). I was looking through my files and I have one good photo of this bird. I couldn't pass up the chance to capture some more images of this cooperative bird during its current migration through the Midwest. I thought this photo represented its kind pretty well.
Canon 1D Mk3 | 600mm f/4 | 1.4xTC
ISO 500, 1/2000 @f/5.6, Eval 0, Av Mode
LR3.2, sharpen, crop, curves
Exposure looks great and I like the inquisitive pose.
I might crop a hair more from the bottom and close out the on tall blade to the left of the birds left leg and the two bright colored ones in the back right halfway up the frame.
Bryan, this is a lovely capture of a Robin. Like your crop. It's nice and sharp and the colors look good. If you are not opposed to it, I may consider eliminating the two blades of grass to the right which are so much lighter than the rest.
American Robin
