Robin (Erithacus rubecula), Royal Botanic Garden, Edinburgh, taken by Claudia Caporusso. Robins hold territories even in the winter when, unlike most birds, you can still hear the males singing, and defending these territories quite fiercely. Males and females are alike in plumage, so singing is the main way to tell the sexes apart.
