Hi Beth, Our (European)robins (Erithacus rubecula)are a different specie than American robins (Turdus migratorius).
The American ones are more like a blackbird. The european robin is much smaller,about the size of a sparrow. see also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Robin
I heard my little robin ticking outside.

He is SO darling! Our robins are a lot bigger than yours are--my sissy says it is because they're Ground Robins.
