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.
Basalt Wheatear
The Basalt Wheatear is a wheatear of the family Muscicapidae recently described from the basalt desert regions of the Middle East. It inhabits open rocky terrain with sparse vegetation and perches prominently on stones and boulders. It catches insects by dropping to the ground from a perch in typical wheatear fashion.
