Blimey! Is the English Robin a bird of death? Is the Pope catholic?

The 'cheeky' little red breasted fella you see on Christmas cards is the most evil being on the planet. I refer to him as one being as this is exactly what he is.

The Robin may look like an entire species but is in fact only one bird, who is so intent on bringing death to living creatures that his powers are far greater than you can even imagine.

His pure evil-bringing death upon others...ness is so strong that he can create thousands of apparitions of himself to spread his evilness for him, while he sits at home on his twig throne eating berries from the breasts of beautiful women.

On a last note, he's not a happy bunny when people spell his name with 2 'b's. He gets really upset and tends to spread more death and destruction on those particular days when someone makes the fatal mistake of mistakenly spelling his name - Robbin.

Along with not capitalising the first letter of his name either those who do this are surely asking for trouble.

Robins are lucky birds but if one flies through an open window or taps on a window it's a warning of a death.
Raven's rooks and crows are the birds most associated with death, but other birds have a reputation for warning of deaths, such as the night-jar and the cockerel

'When the c o c k c o c k Robin comes bob bob bobbing along.'

The first line of a Christmas or Winter song sang with the joy of seeing one.
Dig a garden and take a rest and find one sitting on the handle of the spade any time of the year.
Robins are the most friendly of birds and long may they stay so.

Stupid Yahoo does not allow c o c k to be written normally.

No. Quite the opposite. Here is a quote from a website about birds and their symbolism:

Unlike the unfortunate swallow, red-breasted or feathered birds have often been looked upon as passion-inspiring and generally lucky. The robin, in particular, is revered in most cultures as a compassionate, fun-loving, and fortunous bird. bodyOffer2()

Hi,
my lizard, Marlon, just saw off a Robin, about to attack me from the greenhouse roof. It zoomed down to the bread laid out, and made threatening noises. Marlon was quick on the attack, and saw the ominous creature off.
A bird for Christmas ?
I suppose a Goose would be better.
But not on a Christmas card.
Merry Whatnots,
Bob.

No. The Robbin, with his summer livery of bright red breast, is usually shown on Christmas cards. He represents the blood of Christ.

Don't be ridiculous, NO bird is a bird of death!!!!

Robins look cute and we all love them, though i believe they can be vicious and territorial.

yes, with a 3 m. wing span, a hooked, flesh ripping beak and 15 mm. razor sharp talons, the British robin is one of the world's most feared aerial predators. it has been known to prey on horses, under developed teenagers and fiat 500s. it got its familiar nickname, 'robin red-breast' because of its blood spattered feathers. it is a dangerous, rapacious killing machine. a strange choice for Christmas cards. then again, i may be getting it mixed up with a pterodactyl.
