This American Robin tried to warm up a little on a sunny but very cold morning. He was sitting next to a creek.

Gorgeous light on this Robin. It does look cold with those feathers all fluffed up. Nicely done Axel.
Make your life spectacular!

Yeah, we don't see robins quite that puffed up around here :) Beautiful light on the bird and the dark background sets it off so nicely.

All fluffed up - and even its expression is quite miserable, Axel! The detail and light is lovely.

Reminds me of an old English round...
Ah, poor bird,
Take they flight,
Far above the sorrows
Of this dark night

I hope it did-so cold -looking!

Thanks for sharing this, these little guys are so hardy and continued to look for food a short time later.

That good looking Robin just pops out of the BG! Great light and a fine image.
