Robin
This is the first time I have managed to get a semi decent shot of a Robin
Completely pants, compared to most of the bird pics on here, but I am dead chuffed

Doesn't it look deep in thought, sad even, almost like he has his hands crossed behind his back? ..Now I've never seen a pic of a Robin portray such emotion before. Well done!!

Thanks Azz, I wish it were sharper 
.
If he looks fed up it's because some strange woman was crawling across a lawn to get closer
And she wouldn't go away until she has got a pic

awww! I'm sure it wasn't you! But it's a lovely photo! It's a shame it's nto a little more in focus, but i agree with azz - he's showing such emotion, it doesn't matter too much about the focus etc! 
well done!

Lovely little shot by the way.
Don't worry about the focus either...it'll come with practice. The fact is, that your actually getting yourself into these situations to take the shots in the first place. That's what I'm impressed with
