Today's Bird Of The Day, a weekly community photo event, set the theme to 'Robins' and invited submissions of any robin species. Entries included a European Robin singing in the New Forest, Hampshire; an American robin tending a nest and later attending nestlings behind newly leafed bushes; and an inquisitive European Robin photographed at Cleeve Castle, Somerset. Photographers also shared a European Robin bathing in a south Cheshire garden pond and emphasized shooting ethically from a distance to avoid disturbing nests. The theme highlights how familiar robins across regions offer striking, accessible photo opportunities and encourages responsible wildlife observation worth exploring.
