There are quite a few near our house.
I didn't realise that male and female robins looked the same. What i took to be a female is apparently a juvenile robin.
A couple of weekends ago a robin kept flying into my neighbours garage window.
It spent the whole of the afternoon flying against the glass. I asked my neighbour to see if there was a bird trapped in his garage.....there wasn't, it was just that the robin could see its own reflection and was fighting it.
My neighbour put a board against the glass so that there was not a reflection and the bird left.
