American robin

"Yes, the robin, the Opechee, Joyous said, “O Chibiabos, Teach me tones as sweet and tender, Teach me songs as full of gladness!”"

"I dreaded that first robin so, But he is mastered now, And I'm accustomed to him grown,— He hurts a little, though."

"Few mont' ago it happen dat I'm goin' walk aroun', Gettin' ready for de ploughin' is comin' on de spring, An' soon I wait an' listen, for I t'ink I hear de song Of de firse, de early robin, as he jus' begin to sing.It was very, very lucky w'en de firse wan come along — An' you see upon your farm dere is de place de robin stop, Settle down to feex hees fedder, an' commence to mak' hees song — For o' course it's always makin' beeg difference wit' de crop."

"When the red, red, robin comes bob, bob, bobbin' along, along There'll be no more sobbin', when he starts throbbin' his old sweet song."

"He rocks in the tree tops all day long Hoppin' and a-boppin' and a-singing his song All the little birds on Jaybird Street Love to hear the robin go tweet, tweet, tweet."
