A rainy day today. What better to do than to hang around in a tree and preen those wet feathers?
It was Mother's Day recently and we gave mom a new camera. I set it up for her and had the chance to test it. The results were nice. It's always challenging to zoom properly on a subject in a bushy area, especially with a snapshot camera, but it pulled it off nicely.
Our model is a young American robin (Turdus migratorius), a migratory species very common in North America, with a conservation status of least concern. They can be often observed early in the morning flocking and picking in the ground looking for insects and worms. They also feed on fruits and berries later in the summer.
