Went for a little wander at ~golden hour. Saw some birds — the blue tits were a little too skittish to get a clean photo, but this robin was very very accommodating & posed nicely for me.

Picture of a european robin from the side, perched on a thorny branch and looking at the camera. It's a tiny bird, feathers puffed out to make it round and cozy.

Floof Ball Robin (I)

Close-up picture of a european robin from the side, perched on a thorny branch and looking into the distance. It's a very tiny bird, and its feathers are kind of puffed out to make it round and cozy. There's a little bit of soft light hitting it from the front, making the orange feathers on its breast almost glow.

Floof Ball Robin (II)

Picture of a handful of brown oak leaves on an otherwise dead branch, lit from behind by the setting sun. The light is spotty, only hitting some of the leaves, but where it does, they're completely translucent and glowing, vein structure clearly illuminated. In the blur of the background, there's shapes that hint at trees.
