The American Robin (Turdus migratorius) is a widespread and familiar bird in North America, known for its distinctive orange-red breast and melodious song.
American Robins are found throughout North America, from Alaska to Mexico, in a variety of habitats including forests, woodlands, gardens, and urban areas.
The American Robin is a medium-sized bird, about 9-11 inches long with a wingspan of 12-16 inches.
The male and female look alike, with a brownish-gray back and a bright orange-red breast.
They have a white belly and a yellow bill.
American Robins are active and energetic birds, often seen hopping along lawns and fields in search of insects, earthworms, and berries. They are also known for their distinctive “cheer-up, cheerily” song, which is often heard in the early morning.
American Robins typically breed in late March or early April, and lay a clutch of 3-5 blue-green eggs in a nest made of twigs, grass, and mud. Both parents help incubate the eggs and care for the young.
While some American Robins stay in their breeding range year-round, others migrate south to warmer areas in the winter.
Large flocks of robins can sometimes be seen in fall and winter, feeding on berries and fruits.
American Robins are a common and widespread species, with an estimated population of over 310 million individuals.
However, like many bird species, they are threatened by habitat loss and climate change.
Overall, the American Robin is an iconic and beloved species in North America, known for its beautiful song and cheerful presence.
