Description
A Robin in my Grandmothers yard.
I got a new lens, yay me!(It's not super expensive or fancy, but still!)

This is a American Robin.

Here's some facts;

The American Robin is the largest thrush in America.

Males are more vocal than females, but also slightly larger and more brightly coloured. Adult American Robins have grey-brown backs, reddish breasts, white bellies, white chins, yellow bills and throats with dark streaks. Juveniles have dark speckles on their backs and on their cinnamon-coloured breasts.

Found throughout North America, the breeding or summer range of the American robin spreads across every province and territory of Canada. During the winter, most migrate as far south as southern Mexico and Guatemala. However if food is still available, some may stay during the winter.

Their diet is made up of 40 per cent invertebrates and 60 per cent fruit. During the spring and summer, it eats invertebrates such as earthworms, caterpillars and beetles, and in the fall and winter switches to fruits such as viburnum, sumac, chokecherries and tomatoes. Young are fed invertebrates including grubs and earthworms.
