Today I saw a Robin.


18 december 2012

 

Today I saw a Robin.

It was sitting on a thin branch of a tree.
 
The white snow combines so well with its warm colors.

It was a quarter past three and the warm light of the low sun was shining on its red breast.
The red seemed to glow in this light.

It sat there just for a few seconds, long enough for me to observe its proud heartshaped red chest, its fragile legs to keep its plump body upright and its refined small beak that sings a fine song.
I could have watched it for hours.
 
The Robin must be my alltime favorite bird.
 
Itsn't it pretty!
