This Robin was singing happily even though there was still snow on the ground.
Taken at Cannock Chase Forest, Staffordshire UK.
Any tips or constructive criticism are welcome :)

Beautiful composition. I like all different colors of green and the contrast with the touch of orange of the bird's plumage.
