Week 6: Robin (Erithacus rubecula)

The Robin was @SpeciesofUK from 6th to 12th January 2013.

Robins are the UK's third most common bird, coming behind the wren and the chaffinch and ahead of the blackbird and house sparrow.1

It is many people's favourite bird, and immediately recognisable even to people with little interest in wildlife.
