American Robin eating Mahonia Berries

Nikon D850 550 mm F/6.3 1/250 sec ISO 2000 Exp 0.7 no flash

American Robin eating Mahonia Berries: common name is Oregon Grape Berries. This robin was nesting in a redbud tree in my yard and this shrub grows right below that tree. I can take images from my porch or great room window. I love to watch the birds when the berries are ripe.

This is an amazing capture, as if he sat there posing for you berry in beak. His colors along with the blueberries are vibrant and the background with the colors of nature complement the scene.

Thank you. These shrubs are blooming now in my yard and they are fragrant for long distances and are covered with honeybees. So bees now and birds later.
