The tiny, chirping robin perched on a snow-covered branch is a common motif on Christmas cards. Why are robins on Christmas cards?
One plausible explanation is that robins sing throughout the Christmas holiday season. And it habitually comes to our back door steps to beg for food at this time of year.
Here's another coincidence: there are distinctive red patches on robins' chests. Victorian postmen wore bright red uniforms, earning them the nickname 'robin'.
Their gentle nature and beautiful songs have always made them a favorite of ours, so what better way to celebrate our close relationship with this little bird than to include its image on our Christmas cards?
Robins are small and not powerful fighters. However, they are very territorial, and fights often break out when they are defending their territory from "intruders".
