This American Robin was really eating the red berries of this holly tree.

That’s so cool that you caught this bird with the berries Don.

I love the lighting in this capture - the backlight includes just enough reflected light to make the robin really stand out.

Good catch. Robins and waxwings used to eat so many berries at our Spokane house that the got drunk and would fly into our windows and knock themselves silly. I rescued a few of them.

Great pose and composition. I'm a bit distracted by the colors at the bottom.

Good job here, Don. They do the same thing in our neighbors yard.

Thanks, y’all. Yea, this was in a grove of Holly trees in the forest and over 15 pretty American Robins were gorging themselves flying all around . It was cool to see.
