Bird Of The Day set Robins as today's theme, featuring a European Robin at Cleeve Castle in Somerset, a singing robin on a mini break to the New Forest in Hampshire, and an American robin tending a nest. Photographers captured distinct behaviors and contexts: the European Robin looked inquisitive at Cleeve Castle, the Hampshire bird was shown in full song, and the American robin returned ten days later to attend nestlings behind newly leafed-out bushes. The set highlights cross-Atlantic differences in robin appearance and behavior and showcases accessible, ethically shot wildlife photography and seasonal nesting to explore.
