Robin portrait.

Thanks Brian. The old robin reliant is always good for a pose😅

A side profile of a European robin perched on a slender, mossy green branch. The bird is easily identifiable by its vibrant orange-red breast and face, which contrasts with its light brown wings and white underbelly. It is set against a soft, out-of-focus green background.

A female mallard duck stands in sparkling blue water, mid-stretch with its wings wide open. The duck’s mottled brown feathers contrast beautifully with a vibrant, iridescent blue patch on its wing, known as the speculum.
