One of the United Kingdoms favourite songbirds,that usually adorns greeting cards.This bold and inquisitive songbird as adapted from its countryside setting and made gardens its home.It will approach as the gardener is turning over borders in search of a free meal.
It also will find a home in discarded items such as watering cans and wellington boots to set up a nest site.During this period the Robin can become aggressive to other Robins in order to feed its brood.Once it has established a territory it will also fend off larger visitors to retain a constant food source.
It as a striking orange breast with distinctive grey edge with light buff underparts.
A Robin will follow humans through undergrowth in search of food scraps and disturbed insect life.It is one of the earlybirds and can be very distinctive in song during the dawn chorus well before daybreaks.This one was captured in late afternoon sun.
