European Robin - Erthacus rubecula

In the 1400's when the Robin was named the colour orange had not been classified and this is why we say that the Robin has a red breast and not orange. Its about time that the Robin became the national bird of the UK just like America that has an eagle as their national bird. Well I must be getting soft in my old age seeing as Christmas is just around the corner I thought I'd put up a Robin for you all, have a great Christmas everybody.
