Robin in the crabapples

American Robin: Kennebunk, Maine, USA, November 2026 — This might be what is called an ornamental crabapple tree, rather than a wild crabapple tree, but whatever it is, the Robins just love it after a few freezes. If they leave any pomes after we have had a number of really deep freezes, the Cedar Waxwings will come for them, but the past few years the Robins have cleaned the tree well before the pomes are sweet enough for Cedar Waxwings. There was a flock of at least 30 Robins around the tree the other day. Sony a7CR with the FE 100–400 f5.6–f8 OSS zoom at 400mm. Cropped to 20mp so about 700mm effective field of view.
