       This computer-enhanced digital photograph was taken outside First Christian Church of Alexandra, Virginia, two days before Christmas. My husband and I were about to enter the building when we heard a terrific racket. A flock of robins had discovered a holly tree bursting with ripe holly berries. Their enthusiasm was inspirational. Most of my photographs of the event were blurred by the speed of their attack, but I got this sharp picture of one robin thrush enjoying his meal.
