Erm.. another robin, in the snow :)

Hi everyone,

it's been a while since I posted in the Birds section, since I started shooting humans for a living and swapped all my kit I've gone from crop+200mm to full frame+135mm as my longest combo! Not good for birds! Robins are still kind enough to come close though, especially when they're hungry. Here's one from before Christmas. White balance deliberately made blue because I thought it looked colder, let me know if you think it works

I liked the little bits of snow falling off his beak

Looks good with that WB, need to get yourself some long glass

I know! My main priority at the minute is paying the rent, but a long lens isn't too far down the list

Nice shot Lauren I particularly like the inquisitive look of the bird.

Superb shot...love the posture.

Thanks guys, he was really hassling me as I was trying to get some landscape shots. Think he thought he could bully me into feeding him but I was empty handed
