For a change it was a nice morning outdoors at the Botanic Garden with a hazy sun in the upper 50s. The robins were out and about in force chasing each other in amorous sport, for it's the breeding season. This one struck a noble pose atop a branch of a David crabapple tree in the English Walled Garden. Click the photo for a large version.

What a pose! I like him much better than the crabby tree rat! ... though the querulous squirrel IS funny!
