About These Birds
European Robin
The European robin is one of the most beloved birds in Britain, where it is the unofficial national bird. Despite its friendly demeanor toward humans, robins are fiercely territorial against their own kind, singing year-round to defend territory. Their distinctive song is one of the first to be heard at dawn.
Asian Brown Flycatcher
The Asian Brown Flycatcher is a small migratory flycatcher that breeds in northeastern Asia and winters across South and Southeast Asia. Weighing about 11.75g with a wingspan near 13.6cm, it has plain brown-grey upperparts and pale underparts. It catches insects by making short aerial sallies from a perch.
