Now you may think I've seen the same robin visit my garden year after year so it must be quite a few. Sadly, the life of a Superhero sidekick is fraught with danger although there have been individuals that have lived for 12 years.
Holy Little Bird Batman!! Most robins have an average life expectancy of 1¼ to 1½ years, but only about 10-20% of young reach adulthood. Much of that ‘infant mortality’ happens in the nest or shortly after fledging. Birds in captivity can live to much greater ages - even exceeding the longest lived wild birds.

Wow I have never knew that those little birds were called robins, and the sad thing is that they only live about a year...Look at them they are so cute, yet fragile..
They are so beautiful. They look really tubby, but then you're right, they're also so fragile and delicate. I want one lol.
