American Robin
[Turdus migratorius]

[Length 10 in. Wingspan 17 in.]

The return of the American Robin to residential lawns each year is the universal symbol of the coming of spring. The "American" Robin was named by the early colonists because its "red" breast reminded them of the European Robin, a common bird of their homelands. Although both birds are thrushes (in the family Turdidae), the American Robin is twice the size of its European namesake and more closely related to European thrushes such as the Fieldfare. American Robins have one of the largest breeding ranges of any bird in North America, ranging over virtually all of the US, Alaska, and Canada (except the far arctic reaches of Canada such as Baffin and Ellsmere Islands and the north slope of Alaska). This one was photographed in the foothills of southern Colorado, USA. Photo taken with a Nikkor 300mm f4.5 ED lens on Ektachrome 400 film pushed to 800. (Date: June 1986)
