Winter Robin

Robin in Winter, Toronto photographer Robert Rafton
Okay, remember when I said I never go out in the winter, well it looks like I lied, because a couple of weeks ago there was a brief warm spell and I did indeed venture out with the old camera. It used to be the first robin of spring was a big deal, but lots of them simply spend the winter here now because it's so (relatively) easy to find food. This guy had a dozen pals at least with him in our mysterious Area 51.

For real camera buffs, you might be interested to know this image was shot at 3200 ISO. Not bad.
