It sounds like their robin's might be like the Canadian ones. <br />The magpies were also totally different too. I love the Blue Jays... such an amazing colour. I'm thinking that I might do a collection of birds from other countries next.

I'm fascinated with the process and not just the finished work. I'm glad that you enjoyed seeing it. <br />I'm currently painting a robin, but it's at the early stages at the moment, so I'm not sure how it is going go.
