A Young Robin
On Wednesdays I work onsite at a health retreat located just outside a small village called Langford Budville. When I have my break at lunchtimes, there is nothing I enjoy more than walking around their beautiful grounds with my camera. This week I was lucky enough to capture this young robin. Such beautiful birds. I really love how it’s red/orange breast really pops out in the photo.



Beautiful capture of the Robin!
Thank you Fozia 🙂 x
Beautiful photo. Robins are such gorgeous birds. #mysundayphoto xx
Thank you so much – I totally agree xx
Now, look at that beauty! What a fanastic shot! xx
Thank you so much Melody x
This is wonderful. How nice to see a little friend 🙂 x
Thank you Lisa xx
such a pretty little bird. we have scarlet robins here that are just so pretty it is hard to believe they are real.
You are so right Sherry x
What a beautiful photo. Stunning xx
Thank you so much Susan x
I adore Robins. We had a tame one once and I used to feed him dried mealworms by hand. Super shot V
Thank you so much Hayley – that sounds wonderful about your tame Robin, Grace would love that x
How lucky to capture this. One of my favourite birds! #MySundayPhoto
Thank you – I was 🙂 x
A beautiful capture, I’m never quick enough with the camera x
Thank you Jane x
What a fabulous photo – robins are so bright and cheery to look at and you’ve captured this little chap so well! 🙂
Thank you so much Louise – they are gorgeous birds x
Stunning! I prefer the look of your robins to ours…smaller and cuter somehow!
I actually didn’t realise that you had Robins over there xx
I couldn’t pass this photo without commenting. I’m always in awe of anyone who manages to catch a bird before it flies off. Great capture Vic. I do love robins 🙂
What very kind words, thank you Suzanne. I love them too 🙂 x
Fantastic photo! That is just beautiful! It seems such a long time since I saw any robins x
Thank you Kim x
He’s a stunning little thing. We get some pretty birds here but I don’t think I’ve ever seen a robin that close!
He is lovely, isn’t he 🙂 x
Great picture. you are so lucky to have somewhere nice to have your lunch, and to take amnazing photos
Thank you,, I really am 🙂 x
I love seeing robins, we have one that regularly visits our garden.
They are so beautiful x
Aww what a beautiful Robin! They’re so pretty aren’t they? We had a nest last year and ‘our’ robins had babies – it was so lovely x #mysundayphoto
They really are Carolynne x
This is a beautiful capture, most definitely my favourite this week.
Love robins, we have two at ours and they come every morning to the back of the barns for their food.
Fab shot 🙂
Thank you so much Jayne, that is lovely of you to say xx
What a stunning photo, a great capture – I love how red his belly is against the rest of the photo!
Thank you Jenni x
What a beautiful shot, there is nothing more beautiful than a Robin photo, we used to get lots of birds viking the garden until Toby moved in, they stay away now x
Thank you Sarah x
Beautiful! I love seeing robins in my garden and that’s a gorgeous photo.
Thank you Emma x
Love this, what a great shot!
Thank you 🙂 x
What a beautiful photo! The red breast always looks stunning at this time of year against the winter backdrop! We love robins! xx #MySundayPhoto x
Thank you – we do too x
Beautiful capture, robins are so photogenic.
Thank you, they really are 🙂 x
That’s such an amazing capture. Love robins…
Thank you Karen x
Gorgeous huni, what a lovely shot x
Thanks Aby x

Thank you for linking up
Thank you Darren – and thanks for hosting
What a lucky capture and a gorgeous photo.
Thanks Debs x
Fantastic!!! Nothing says winter more than a great picture of a Robin!
Thank you John x
Great capture. I love robins, the splash of colour is gorgeous. There is a robin in our garden everyday, just sitting on the fence, but I never manage to get a photo before it flies away.
Thank you Lauren – I hope you manage to photograph him one day x
Gorgeous photo. You’ve captured the robin perfectly. I can never get near enough to birds to photograph them!
Thank you Sarah x
A lovely photo, robins are one of my favourite birds x
Thank you Sherry – mine too x
Hi Victoria, we have cheeky robin that perches on our woodpile. Whenever I go out back he’s there… Unless I have my camera with me, then of course he’s not! I swear I can see the cheeky glint in the eye of your robin too. Love the way It’s puffed up against the cold too.
xx
I bet your robin will be there for you one day. He does have a glint – he is so beautiful x
What a gorgeous photo, his little redbreast really does pop! If there was a dusting of snow, it could almost be a Christmas card shot
Thank you Sally x
That is a lovely shot. What an accommodating robin to sit so still for you.
He really was – I followed him all the way down the lane. Thank you John 🙂
The health retreat sounds amazing. I’m glad you can enjoy the outdoors on your break. What a stunning photo. I love robins but they are so quick, I’ve never been able to photograph one in focus. #MySundayPhoto
It really is – I am very lucky. Thank you Tara x
I agree, that splash of orange is eye catching!
Thanks Brooke x
To me The Robin is the epitome of Winter, and as you say it’s red/orange colour contrasting against all the greyness of winter is just stunning!
What a lovely place to work, btw, and how lucky to have a lunchbreak that allows you to do photography; mine is a quick dash to a sandwich shop then a room full of other PCs!!

I totally agree Tracey. My work place is a portacabin so it is important to me to get out for some fresh air 🙂 x
Robins are such lovely, friendly birds. Gorgeous photo, and his red breast really does pop x
Thank you Sara – they really are 🙂 x
A stunning shot Victoria, I adore our robins. I missed them so much when living abroad.
Happy Sunday to you
Thank you Neesie 🙂 x
He might be young but he is beautiful. A lovely picture, you seem to have a knack for catching wildlife at their best xx
He totally is 🙂 Thank you so much Lisa – that is an amazing compliment x
I have a son named Robin with bright brown eyes and I love to catch sight of them in trees. Lovely shot
Thank you Louise x
Oh he is beautiful, we have some hanging around the farm but i never have the right lens on at the right time, your photo makes me determined to try.
I am certain I will see one you have photographed soon Fiona x
What a great photo – a lovely splash of colour on a grey winter’s day!
Thank you Tim – the colour is such a beautiful contrast 🙂
