oooooooooooh some sharp pics there!

[Pancake]

Wow, thats some really good photo's

[alexnifty]

As soon as a saw the title of the thread and who posted it I knew the Robin was back :)

Such a cheeky little chappie, he is awesome.

[mac124]

Haha cheers guys, i am pretty sure its the same one as last year as he sits in exactly the same place looking in the kitchen / conservatory window. He / she also hopped over to me giving me the beady eye when i sat on the back doorstep to take the pictures, i think it was expecting a handful of meal worms. He (i'll assume its a male) was so close i had to move back a bit as my camera wouldn't focus lol.

Has he got a name? I think he looks like Brian Blessed.

[Aaron]

Aren't they supposed to not be in this country at this time of year!? :lol:

From the photos the robin looks like he's staring straight at the camera.:lol:

[coiler]

[mac124]

Cheers for the compliments, as to the camera well its an entry level Canon DSLR the EOS1000D, the lense i had on it at the time was my 55-250IS.

Some cracking pics mate!
I hope to get some similar with my new camera.
We get lots of birds in the garden (Sadly not the type i would like)

[callumburns]

those shots are amazing mate good work :D!

[Pullen]

Have to say, I've never been that much of a fan of Robins, but those pics are v. impressive!

[Oscar99]

Epic pics - how do they manage to stay on your hand? i mean the robins i get in my garden don't go near anyone really.

[mac124]

Mealworms and a bit of patience and they will soon be litterally eating out of your hand :D

[Koolpc]

Fantastic pics!!

[coiler]

Live or freeze dried mealworms?

[mac124]

Cheers Koolpc :D

Coiler they have to be live for my Robin, no wiggle no interest it would seem :confused:

[alexnifty]

He probably thinks dead = putrefied and gonna make me ill.
