Her beak is thin and not long. The ponytail is oblong, and the paws are thin, but very tenacious. However, at first glance, the robin may seem a little plump bird. In fact, this is not so! The fact that the plumage plumage is very loose and soft, and the feathers themselves do not fit tight enough to the calf, hence the "fullness" effect.

Color

Both types of robins are very similar in color. Ordinary zadninka has olive-gray wings, tail, upper part and light-gray tummy and breast. Her forehead and neck are bright orange.
