Ah, so sweet. I love how the befuddled robin is color-coordinated with the scenery. Such a beautiful photo! LikeLiked by 2 people
a really stunning photo, icy but that’s okay here … love how he blends in with his surroundings all so delightfully colour matched, perfect! LikeLiked by 1 person

Thanks, Anne. Yes, robins are fun to watch. They like to tag along behind my husband when he tills the garden in the spring, hoping he turns up some juicy worms! LikeLike
