The Robin's Evening Song


Sun! A beautiful day today! And then toward evening, here is the robin boasting his orange breast, sitting on the peak of the roof, melodiously singing his evening song. It is different than his morning and daytime songs. I've heard it called his evening prayer.

I didn't know that... we have some robins that sing until midnight, even when it's 'dark', (though with all the street lighting, it's never really dark). I'll listen out now and see if I can hear any difference between the day and evening songs of our English robins. I do love your blog April, always something interesting to read and see...
