Hi there

I was at Westonbirt Arboretum recently and came across this littlle Robin bathing in a pond and really enjoying himself. :D

Apologies for the quality of the image :o but it was a spur of the moment shot. For those interested it was taken at 200mm focal legth, 1/60th @ f5.6 handheld.

Great shot! He looks slightly miffed that you've photographed him in the bath though ;)

Yeah !!!! he didn't seem too impressed shortly after he flew off. We passed by the same pond some while later and he was back there again splashing around. As Robins are very territorial I'm assuming it was the same one

Mike I agree, great shot and what an expression - "Do You Mind!!" :eek:

Lovely shot - and I can't help laughing at the Robin's expression.
