A technically well done shot. The only downside for me is the bird is just sitting there - almost like it was stuffed. Somehow I'd like it be actively doing something. As it is, it would be a great shot for learning what this particular bird looks like. Food for thought.
It is doing something. It is staring intently at the photographer in an "alert" pose. Birds like this "robin" with eyes on the side of their head are looking at you when the side of their head is toward you. They arrived here last week, and the males like this fellow are busy picking out their territories and squabbling with other males over the prime real estate so they'll be all set when the females arrive. Sort of reminds me of the people around here!
