When the cold arrives and many birds fly away, one of them stays behind and keeps singing anyway: the robin. With its glowing orange chest it looks like a little spark of color in a gray winter garden, which makes these robin coloring pages perfect for brightening up a quiet afternoon.

We collected robins of every kind: one singing with its beak wide open, another gliding by with its wings spread, several perched on their branch and even a really cute cartoon one. You get to choose the color of every feather, though you already know which one cannot be missing.

The best part is that while you color you also get to know this little bird: where its name comes from, why it is so brave, and what it does when every other bird is freezing. Each page comes with a different fact so you learn something new.

And when you are done, here at Coloring Together we have a gallery that is like a feeder full of birds: we would love to add your robin so other kids can see it. Go ahead and share it!

Why color robin coloring pages?

The robin is a tiny bird with a huge personality: it guards its territory so fiercely that it will sometimes pick a fight with its own reflection. Its trademark is that orange breast, which both males and females wear.

Coloring robins is a lovely way to look at them up close. As you pick the right shade of orange for the chest and the brown for the wings, your hand relaxes and your eyes go to the little details, just like when you watch a bird quietly so you don't scare it away.

We also tucked a bunch of fun facts about robins between the drawings, so every page you finish gives you something to share. Ready to color that orange breast?

Learn while coloring Robins

  1. The orange breast is the robin's trademark, and both males and females show it off.
  2. It is a very territorial bird: it defends its little patch of garden so bravely that it sometimes takes on its own reflection.
  3. It sings almost all year round, even in winter, and near city lights some sing at night.
  4. Its scientific name is Erithacus rubecula, and it is called robin redbreast because of that reddish chest.
  5. Chicks are born without the orange breast: they are speckled brown, which protects them from territorial adults.
  6. It eats insects, worms, spiders, berries and seeds, so it finds food all year long.
  7. It often follows gardeners to grab the worms uncovered when the soil is turned over.
  8. In the UK it is the bird of Christmas and shows up on loads of Christmas cards.
  9. It was voted the national bird of the United Kingdom in a public poll.
  10. It builds its cup-shaped nest in curious places, like old kettles, flowerpots or shelves.
