Birds of Andorra
Birds not only delight people of every age, they are also indispensable for the ecological balance. With these three very different birds, which have existed for millions of years, Andorra shows the diversity and importance of these flying animals.

The Robin Redbreast is a member of the Old World Flycatcher‘s family. An old legend says that a member of this bird species comforted Jesus while he was dying. The European Robin is a small, plump, migratory songbird closely related to thrushes. The Robin is affectionately known as “Robin Redbreast” and is undoubtedly one of the best-loved garden birds of Great Britain. His fame is perhaps due to his visible re-appearance at Christmas-time hopping and singing around our gardens where he lives in close proximity to humans. The Robin is Britain’s national bird. After a survey conducted through the pages of The Times in 1960, the Council for Bird Preservation conferred the title “Bird of Britain” on the Robin in 1961.
