Where to spot
Widespread across North America, inhabiting forests, woodlands, suburban parks, gardens, and agricultural areas. Winters in the southern US and Central America.
How to spot
Easily found foraging on lawns for earthworms or perching in trees. Its red breast is unmistakable. Listen for its varied, clear, and caroling song ('cheerily, cheer up, cheerily, cheer up').
When to spot

Despite its common name, the American Robin is a true thrush, not a robin (Old World flycatcher). It is a highly successful generalist, thriving in diverse habitats from forests to urban parks.
