It's winter and cold, but there are flocks of robins eating the crabapples. (Click on image to view larger).

That little guy is a little confused. He shouldn't be out and about in those parts until spring. Pretty capture amongst the crushed berries.

Wooooooooow, this looks so good, super shot.

I see robins at Sarah's house east of here, I see them north of here, but I never see them here in the winter. I would love to know the reason they are not here.

Joli! Maybe that is why they are the same color...

Rose, maybe there is not enough of what they need to survive in the winter--berries, crabapples etc???

Funny, Marie! :-D

A beautiful, but poignant photo. I thought these little cuties would be far south by this time!

Thanks for visiting Colorado in Color, Mary!

Best wishes to you and yours!

Thanks, Jacob!!

We're having a "blizzard" today and a poor robin was our in our dogwood looking pretty forlorn--I accidentally scared him off throwing a shovelful of snow in his direction.
