Both the male and female American Robin
share the same colouration. They are brown-grey on top with
bright red undersides. The male red colouration is much brighter
than the females however. The male American Robin also grows
black feathers around their eyes during breeding season to attract
females.
Habitat
Their range extends all across North America
during the breeding and warmer seasons. They occupy most woodland
areas and can even be found in open fields, if there is sufficient
shrubbery for a nesting site. During the winter months, the
American Robin migrates to South America.
