Today’s Bird Of The Day chose the theme "Robins" for the weekly bird-photography challenge, asking contributors to share images of any robin species. Photographers posted images including a European Robin at Cleeve Castle in Somerset, a robin bathing in a garden pond in south Cheshire, and a singing robin during a break to The New Forest, Hampshire. An American robin was documented tending a nest and returning to feed nestlings behind newly leafed bushes, with the photographer noting the shot was taken at a distance to avoid disturbance. The theme highlights both European and American robin species and provides a quick way to compare plumage, behavior, and habitat across regions.
