Robin on a fence

Seen on the trail of my neighborhood lake. Bringing home the bacon.

Canon 7D, 300 f4L IS, 1.4x TC
ISO 400, f6.3, 1/320s, hand held

Took some poop off the rail.
Any comments appreciated.

Excellent detail in the Robin and that’s some mouthful, Allen. Definitely a darker version than we often see around here, though if this is current, I think you’re further into the breeding season than we are. Ours are just starting to sing and many haven’t lost the light colored feather tips that wear off to reveal the breeding plumage.

I like the pose and the depth of field, though I think just a bit more room top and bottom would be nice.
