I've seen them before but the look and coloring of an juvenile American robin (Turdus migratorius) is always surprising. Considering they can produce up to three broods a year, we should see these changelings more frequently. This one was very wary of the pond and that big lens.

The American Robin is named after the European robin because of its reddish-orange breast, though the two species are not closely related.
Turdus migratorius
American Robins built a nest in a Yew shrub in my yard this spring. The adults routinely landed in an Eastern Redbud Tree before dropping into the nest with food for the nestlings. How lucky for me that the Redbud bloomed before the nestlings fledged :o)
This very vocal male American Robin (Turdidae Turdus migratorius) is perched atop his favorite conifer, but when he's on the ground pulling up worms & grubs, he lets everyone know who's in charge.

I keep seeing robins going back and forth between my deck, his, and the wooded area behind our duplex. I think he may have a family building somewhere on his deck. His barbecue, maybe? This shot was taken with high ISO (for my camera), in fairly dark conditions, as it's been raining and cloudy all day. American Robin.

American Robin (Turdus migratorius)
A different view of a shot I posted a few weeks back...... Still waiting for my new camera to arrive and revisiting old shots.
“The quintessential early bird, American Robins are common sights on lawns across North America, where you often see them tugging earthworms out of the ground. Robins are popular birds for their warm orange breast, cheery song, and early appearance at the end of winter. Though they’re familiar town and city birds, American Robins are at home in wilder areas, too, including mountain forests and Alaskan wilderness….. American Robins are fairly large songbirds with a large, round body, long legs, and fairly long tail. Robins are the largest North American thrushes, and their profile offers a good chance to learn the basic shape of most thrushes. Robins make a good reference point for comparing the size and shape of other birds, too….. American Robins are industrious and authoritarian birds that bound across lawns or stand erect, beak tilted upward, to survey their environs. When alighting they habitually flick their tails downward several times. In fall and winter they form large flocks and gather in trees to roost or eat berries.”

It's a preview of winter, nothing more. On October 23rd we woke to snow - not unheard of, but definitely a shock, considering that only six weeks earlier we were baking in the last heat wave of summer, with temperatures in the high 90s Fahrenheit. It can change fast on the prairie.
My neighbour has some crabapple trees on his property, growing in a sheltered spot, and I know that migrating songbirds often stop here on their way south. Sure enough, the action was nonstop. American Robins, White-throated Sparrows, Dark-eyed Juncos, Bohemian Waxwings, and at least one Blue Jay competed for the frozen fruit. All I had to do was stand there and try to keep my hands warm and dry (impossible).
It all melted within a few days; this was just a taste. The last fall colour in the trees, seen here behind the robin, was gone. Some of those leaves may have become mulch for the garlic I planted (garlic needs to over-winter to produce big bulbs). My car is set, with four new studded snow tires. I have nailed my kitchen window closed for the winter (don't ask). This morning I found my winter boots. The weather forecast is calling for a major snowfall, beginning today (November 7). This time it won't melt. Most of the robins - many of which hatched right here in May and June - have departed. Every season here has a unique beauty, and believe it or not I'm expecting to enjoy this one.

An interesting fact of this bitd is that both male and female American robins tend their nestlings together until they fledge at about two weeks of age. Parents continue to care for the fledglings for about another two weeks, at which time they are largely independent. The male does most of the care for the fledglings at this stage, as the female is busy getting ready for a second brood. She may have up to 3 broods each season.

I wanted a shot of a Spotted Towhee...they have cool Halloween colors and red eyes. But all I got was this American Robin drinking. Well, it was orange and black (dark grey!) That would have to do.

Birds have an amazing ability to swallow large objects without choking. If you think this berry is a feat, you need to see what fish-eating birds can down. American Robin, WSU campus, Vancouver, Washington, USA
