The robin that has been coming to my lawn has been a regular visitor. I have even decided to give the robin a name, I've named him Robin Hood. I had trouble deciding if Robin Hood is a male or a female but I did some research and found out that my robin is a male. A male has much more brighter colors than a female does, a female has much more duller colors than a male.
I got more curious about the mythology about robins so I did a little a digging around the internet and I found that the native Americans see the robin as "can do birds." Robins have great work ethic as some tribes say. For some tribes the color of the robin's breast is a sign of fire.
Robin Hood comes around three in the afternoon but then leaves in a few minutes. Seems like he's getting food but I don't know if its for him or if he might have a nest around my house with babies inside. At times Robin Hood doesn't leave the yard unless he finds something. If Robin hood does have babies I would be a little jealous because their father is there for them unlike mine but i have a great stepfather that can represent Robin Hood as a "can do person."
