Poor Robin

We received around 8 inches of snow last night and the Robins were out looking for food this morning. I saw this one sitting in a tree as I was looking out my window. So off came the screen and I opened the window for a few photos. They aren't the best as the wind was still blowing, but I had fun taking them.

Robin just sitting in the shelter of the tree.

Looks like a snowflake is going to hit this poor Robin in the face.

    Did some playing around, a little cropping, moved the middle slider in levels, and bumped the saturation. I'm not real happy with my crop, but I really felt Robin needed to be out of dead center... and probably too light. I need to synch my screens.

    Azzaro save on your AC bill and come on up...We have the natural AC running rolleyes1.gif

    The first photo was the better photo and really not that good either in my opinion, but I was trying to find some humor in the situation. Who wants snow in the Spring headscratch.gif

    Charles thanks for playing with the photo. The Robin was dead center, but from my vantage point that was the best I could do without scaring the bird away. I should have cropped it some.

    Skippy....the kids were out sledding and having a blast. I think I'll join them today wings.gif
