Today's Bird Of The Day event set the theme "Robins" and featured images from a singing robin in the New Forest, Hampshire, to an inquisitive European robin at Cleeve Castle, Somerset. Contributions included an American robin tending its nest and returning to feed nestlings ten days later, with photographers noting that shots were taken ethically from a distance to avoid disturbance. The weekly theme highlights seasonal nesting behavior, lets viewers compare American and European robin plumage and habits, and showcases accessible wildlife photography techniques worth exploring.
