This is another one of those examples of why I always have my camera ready. I was running an errand when I passed this tree and noticed all these robins clustered in the branches. It was early spring in a light snowfall, and they were actively feeding on the berries. I stopped, shut off the truck, lowered the window, and laid my long lens on the glass to steady it. The notoriously skittish birds were so busy eating they paid me no mind. I clicked off a few frames and went on my way. It wasn't until I returned home that I found I had a winner. Many people have remarked that it doesn't look like a photograph. I take that as a compliment!
