On a snowy day last week, a large shape in a tree in my front yard suddenly attracted my eye. It was the biggest, fattest, reddest robin I'd ever seen. I honestly did not know a robin could be so plump. I grabbed my phone and took a picture of it through the kitchen window, just before it flew off. Below is the photo (not the clearest, I admit) and a version that I altered to give it a more fanciful twist. Spring is coming!

Love how you enhanced his!
I love the way you've interpreted this picture Sherry.
(Several consecutive winters, I had a domesticated robin as tubby as this one, and yours reminds me some cute souvenirs...)
Wonderful effects and he is a big guy or he is puffed up from the cold!
What a cheerful chubby robin, Sherry!!
Wonderful treatment of your photo Sherry! Love it! xx
You have fed this bird to well...LOL
Good idea to treat this photo this way.
My DIL is volunteering at the Earth Discovery Center at the park near our home. She has learned that in very cold weather birds fluff their feathers as their protection from the cold. Since we learned that, we understand why all our cardinals have been looking so plump in our recent subzero weather! I'm sure your plump robin is wishing he hadn't migrated quite so early! Beautiful work, by the way!
I love your fluffed up robin, Sherry. I hope he's OK. Apart from the cold, unwell birds puff up their feathers too. Great photo and great added artwork.
I love your fluffy robin, Sherry, and the treatment you've given it. Yay ... spring is on the way.
I love this Sherry it looks like a batik print.
