Just a quick post this morning about an American Robin perched on a shed deer antler. These robin photos were taken in low light around 8 a.m. yesterday.<\/p>\n

My dear friend and wildlife photographer, Steve Creek<\/span><\/a>, who used to hunt shed antlers often, has these antlers in his garden off his deck. I think they work perfectly for the birds in his yard and also provide nutrients to the Fox Squirrels<\/span><\/a> that live in the neighborhood.<\/p>\n

Since Steve placed the shed antlers in his garden, I have seen a wide variety of bird species perching on them, including American Robins. The birds don’t even seem to notice that they are antlers, treating them like branches on a tree or shrub.<\/p>\n

When this robin perched on the antler, it seemed like she or he was waiting for me to take a photo.<\/p>\n

Of course, I felt like I had to take the American Robin’s photo since they were perched there. I’m glad that I took these images.<\/p>\n

The American Robins here have been daily visitors to Steve’s yard, often stopping by for a bath or a drink at the birdbath.<\/p>\n

As abundant as these red-breasted thrushes are in many parts of North America, I can\u2019t resist photographing them nearly every chance I get. I see no reason not to have them in my viewfinder.<\/p>\n

These gorgeous American Robins will always have a special place within me. They are one of the first birds I recognized and remember from when I was just a little girl.<\/p>\n

Life is<\/em> good.<\/p>\n
