What bird is similar to a robin with speckled breast?
The American robin is in the thrush family, a group of birds known for their musical songs. The hermit thrush lacks the robin's reddish coloring but the face, eye ring and beak look similar. The spots on its breast might make you think you're seeing a juvenile robin.
Do robins feed other birds?
A bereaved pair of Robins have been observed feeding Song Thrushes, for example, while Spotted Flycatchers have been seen feeding Blackbirds.
