Overview
The UK's favourite bird - with its bright red breast it is familar throughout the year and especially at Christmas! Males and females look identical, and young birds have no red breast and are spotted with 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 street lights.
Where to see them
Across the UK in woodland, hedgerows, parks and gardens.
When to see them
All year round.
What they eat
Worms, seeds, fruits and insects.
Estimated number 5,895,000 territories |
