The American robin is a medium-sized bird from the thrush family. Adults have a dark head, gray wings and a bright orange-red breast.
The American robin differs from the European robin in that it is larger and has an orange breast instead of red. It is important for the ecosystem because it controls the number of insects and helps spread the seeds of berries.
