Erithacus Rubecula...The Robin

Erithacus Rubecula...The Robin by Adam Swaine Via Flickr: Due to their long legs and somewhat chubby-looking body, they are a beautiful and much-loved bird. But male Robins in particular can be quite mischievous and confrontational during the breeding season and winter months.We find Robins in woodland, hedgerows, parks and gardens. In some riparian forests they can reach settlement densities of up to 20 pairs per 10 ha. Along with the chaffinch, they are one of the most common birds in our forests. The Robin is a so-called "partial migrant", which means some birds decide to spend the winter in warmer places and the rest will stay in the UK all year round

Beautiful Robin..Old World Flycatcher...

Beautiful Robin..Old World Flycatcher... by Adam Swaine Via Flickr: The robin is one of the most familiar birds of the UK, regularly visiting gardens. Robins are also common in parks, scrub and woodland, making their presence known with a loud, territorial song. They sing from prominent perches right through the winter, when both males and females hold territories; indeed, they are fiercely territorial, driving off intruders and even fighting. During the breeding season, the female is allowed into the male's territory where she sets up a nest of dead leaves, moss and hair. Nests often crop up in the oddest of places, such as plant pots, old wellies and shelves, but Ivy and other shrubs are their natural choice.

Old world flycatchers - Park Robin..
flickr
Old world flycatchers - Park Robin.. by Adam Swaine Via Flickr: The UK's favourite bird - with its bright red breast it is familiar throughout the year and especially at Christmas! Males and females look identical and young birds have no red breast but are a spotted golden brown. Robins sing nearly all year round and, despite their cute appearance, they are aggressively territorial and are quick to drive away intruders. They will sing at night next to streetlights
