About These Birds
American Robin
The American robin is widely regarded as a harbinger of spring across North America. Despite its name, it is a true thrush unrelated to the European robin. American robins produce two to three broods per year and are among the earliest birds to sing in the morning chorus.
Ashy Thrush
The Ashy Thrush is a Vulnerable thrush endemic to the Philippines, found in the forest understory of Luzon and a few adjacent islands. Weighing about 63g with a wingspan near 22.8cm, it has predominantly grey plumage with scaled underparts. Continuing forest loss on its island range poses a significant threat.
