A European Robin (Erithacus rubecula) taken in a momentary unusual and amusing pose in the garden last Sunday, against the background of red foliage of our Japanese acer shrub, whose leaves are now lying in a heap on the ground Sad

Thank you all for your C&Cs on my last upload, with a special thank you to Mike(Greyheron) for his User UA and to Phillip(PhillipMinnis) for the GEA - all highly appreciated and valued Smile

Excellent pose Grin, cracking detail and colour plus BG, well caught.

My leaves are still firmly on my acer, must give this a try soon looks great.
