Robin with a Worm

[larryj]

On a visit to the Denver Botanical Garden a few years ago I was sitting on a bench having lunch and this robin few up and landed in a tree a several feet away from me. I put my sandwich down and grabbed my camera a got this shot. The robin looks like he had captured a nice morsel in that fat worm

Your sandwich sounds more appetizing to me but the robin likely thinks otherwise. Nice you had your camera ready to shoot. That looks like a really tall rose the bird is perched on.

What a great shot Larry! Good on you to put down your meal while the Robin had its meal.

I need to get to the Botanical Gardens. I wonder how things are blooming now?

HI Alan, thanks for your comments, appreciated!
The roses were growing on a small tree that the bird found a nice spot to perch on with his prize!

Thanks Jim for your comments!
Your can call the Botanical Gardens and find out what is blooming. Also, try calling the Hudson Gardens to check on the flowering blooms. With the current snow and frost both places have been hit hard!
