Biografier

No other bird is quite so ever-present and familiar, so embedded in our culture, as the robin. With more than six million breeding pairs, the robin seems to live its life alongside us, in every month and season of the year. In The Robin, Stephen Moss records a year of observing the robin both close to home and in the field to shed light on the hidden life of this apparently familiar bird. We follow its lifecycle from the time it enters the world as an egg, through its time as a nestling and juvenile, to the adult bird and ultimately, death. At the same time, we trace the robin's relationship with us: how did this particular bird find its way so deeply and permanently into our nation’s heart and its social and cultural history?
