Description

Still at the lake. Now we were sitting in the shade of the trees enjoying the late afternoon breeze. This robin just flies in, and starts looking for worms. I grabbed my camera for this photo op. Unfortunately, It was a little dark and I could not get too close, So what I thought would be my best shot wasn't. (I am sad.. boohoo..lol.) I had the guy on top of that rock with a big ol' worm, but the focus wasn't right! This one turned out pretty good. (I think I need one of those bigger flash things to hook onto my camera...) I have been trying to get birds, and they aren't an easy subject! I was lucky this one flew right in and posed. Thanks for your comments, views, and suggestions on "Fulica Americana". Have a Tantalizing Tuesday! ~Hugs~

Still a nice shot. Wasn't that good of him to pose for you like that... I'm still trying to get good bird shots ... maybe someday soon.

Beautiful capture, I always fail when I try to capture bird-shots.

From the looks of it, it must have been hatched this past spring. This is really a good shot. They are so nervous and shy it is hard to get one to turn your way. Mostly they will turn their back to you or fly off.
