Michael Warren: American Robin
Robin Throughout the central and northern states, the return of the Robin in March is a regular topic of conversation. It means that spring is in the air, heralded by a reliable friend. Within a few days after the males appear in northern yards the females arrive. Soon the male Robins rend the air with cries as they stake out nesting territories and grapple with rivals. After laying a platform of twigs and grass, the female builds up the walls with mud and more grass. And to give the nest just the right shape, she employs her breast, making turn after turn. While her mate stands guard against invaders, the female incubates the three or four eggs for eleven to fourteen days. This artwork was originally published on a Fleetwood® First Day Cover for the Birds of America Collection.
