Meet Red-Capped Robin, A Spectacular Tiny Bird With Vivid Scarlet Plumage

The red-capped robin is a tiny yet spectacular bird. This small passerine bird is so fluffy and chubby but wears a striking coat of vivid scarlet, black and white. That’s easy to understand why it’s called the “jewel of the bush”.

The female is an undistinguished grey-brown color with a reddish tint to her crown. Some females do have a slight reddish tint to their breast. Both males and females have small black bills, dark brown eyes, and legs.
