Really nice photo, what were you taking it with, and what sort of distance?
My Robin story I love to trot out is as follows.
Once upon a time in England there were Redbreasts and Wrens.
This wasn’t good enough for poets, so we had Robin Redbreasts and Jenny Wrens (amongst other birds and animals Reynard the Fox, for instance).
But time went by, and people sometimes started just calling them Robins and Jenny’s. The former caught on, so the common use name became Robin, while Wren stuck better. However, you will still hear the two part names from time to time.
Canon R7, Sigma contemporary 150/600mm. It was on a low tree branch so between 2 to 4m away? The odds were NOT in my favor for this picture because I accidentally locked the camera on “ISO 100”, this handheld with 2kg+ camera/lens on a windy day. Got lucky :)
Oh that’s wonderful. I head “Robin Redbreast” before but I had no idea about Jenny Wren. Lovely!
