Hello Everyone! This is my first contest. It is a picture prompt, so if you would, please write about the photo of the bird in the snow. Also as you write, remember I am only 12, so no bad or depressing stuff please. You can write in whatever style you feel most comfortable in as long as it is readable. Thank-you and have fun!!

    I had to look at this several times to make sure I really was seeing a Robin from Great Britain, rather than the American Robin, which is actually a thrush. This is such a good picture, too. I will try to come back with a poem. I hope the contest is lots of fun!
