American Robin

American Robin (Turdus migratorius): A common bird found all across North America. Characterized by a a gray upper side and a rusty orange or red breast and flanks. They are often seen on lawns and in suburban areas.



Yesterday I saw an American Robin on main campus. It was a very brightly colored male, with a deep rusty red chest and dark wing and tail feathers. The white around his eye stood out starkly as well.
