Being such a common bird, robins’ beauty tend to be overlooked by many birders. I photographed this bird on 23 February 2021 in Olympia’s West Bay Park. The grass was spangled by rain droplets from a recent storm and robins were prowling for worms. Robins are here all winter, but they have become more noticeable the the last couple of weeks. Note the lack of obvious white spots on this bird’s outer tail feathers, making it one of the western races of robins—which I guess is no great surprise, considering how far west we are.
