Robin in flight

[Cloggy]

Pictured at our suet feeder. I know it's not a natural setting, but I'm happy with this capture in dull evening light with my Canon 450D and Tamrom 18-270mm lens.

What's not natural about it?
It's a lovely shot.

Thank you. I've posted shots from the bird feeder before and it seems that lots of people don't like that sort of image. They prefer to see the birds on branches and other natural perches rather than something man made like this.

Nice one, very good shutter speed and a sharp body. However i think you can loose a good chunk of the feeder by making square or 5x4 landscape.
We've got a robin in the garden too but not seen him in a couple of months now.

Thanks, I thought about that, but decided to keep it in. I'll try re-cropping square as see how it looks.

We normally put these garden pics in the thread at the top of the bird forum entitled "Birds in your Garden"

Nice capture btw
