A robin in London's Holland Park. Although small this species is noted for its fearlessness; it will approach close and stay close! This makes it an ideal subject. The Robin is aggressively territorial whilst the male's distinctive red breast makes it a characteristic and easily noted bird.
I wish all birds were as cooperative!

07 Май 2010, 16:51 Peter Brake Yes, nature rarely poses for the photographer as I've noted before. This pic caught my eye already in thumbnail size - his red breast is very eye catching. Lovely shot. I wonder if cropping off some negative space on the left, i.e. moving litlte ol' robin off center, would add interest to the composition?
