Gone Vegetarian 10_12_05.jpg

I did just a little backyard bird photography this morning. I don't know what these shrubs with the little orange berries are called and I'm not sure it matters. The birds seem to really love them.

Until Bill captured this shot I had never seen a Robin eating anything other than a worm! I just love the way the color of the berries matches the Robins breast. Such a cute picture! I love it!

This is an amazing shot. Everything about it is perfect! You should sell it as a postcard! Vote!

Yes I agree this is beautiful, the color is wonderful, the composition, the focus and the DOF.

I don't think I've ever seen any better bird photo than this. Perfect composition, perfect sharpness and colors. Wonderful DOF. Extraordinary moment caught in here.
I'd vote hundreds of times if permitted.
Congratulations!

Both these bird shots are excellent. I prefer the robin (of course). It is so clear and sharp. The berry in the mouth is an added treat!
