Robin Rescue

I was out in the yard today when I heard a huge commotion in a nearby creek, a Mother Robin was freaking out! I went over to see what was going on and seen this baby Robin trying unsuccessfully to get back on shore...I pushed it up on this rock and went and got the camera. It eventually climbed back to shore and scurried away into the bushes.
Cheers,
Monte

    The angle on that first shot is certainly one that you don't see everyday.

    I'm sure given the water, rocks, etc. It was tough to position the camera or do much else with it.

    Neat shot.

    Well I had a captive subject...it was tired out and not moving so I put the camera down to its level and took a few shots. Poor thing almost dies then someone sticks a huge camera in its face and says "smile" :):

    Good work, nice capture.

    You may consider to level the picture a bit.

    Thanks for sharing.

    I leveled them out. I suppose that was a bit distracting :)

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
