Robin

The Fine Line Between Winter and Spring...

I have been wanting to take a picture of a Robin for weeks, and I finally had my camera with me when I saw this one (in a flock of many) this evening. As you can see, he has found the divide between snowy winter and the grass of spring. I like that he is sitting on the the spring side. I take it as a good sign.
Posted by: "Guest Blogger" Riel. The Robin was photographed in Quispamsis, New Brunswick, Canada.

  1. Such a nice shot..I'm glad he is sitting on the spring side also! The snow around his head and chest give your picture such a nice composition!

    I have seen the robins follow the snow line like this a lot too. Its always a sure sign of spring and quite exciting after a long winter.

  8. Thanks everyone! Well, we got more snow today, so the Spring side is gone again, but hopefully will return soon.
