Suffolk Robin (Erithacus rubecula)

After some shots of a Robin which I took in Scotland, this one was photographed nearer home at Minsmere on Sunday. By the look of its beak it had been enjoying the blackberries. It was late and the light was poor, so I didn't expect too much but I managed one shot before it flew off. Ron
