Appearance
At 15 to 16 cm in length, the Eastern Yellow Robin is one of the larger Australasian robins, and one of the most easily observed. Pairs and small family parties establish a territory—sometimes year-round, sometimes for a season—and seem little disturbed by human presence.
Habitat
The Eastern Yellow Robin occupies a wide range of nubs: heaths, mallee, acacia scrub, woodlands and sclerophyll forests, but is most often found in damper places or near water.Like all Australian robins, the Eastern Yellow tends to inhabit fairly dark, shaded locations and is a perch and pounce hunter, typically from a tree trunk, wire, or low branch.
Reproduction
Breeding takes place in the spring and, as with many Australian birds, is often communal. The nest is a neat cup made of fine plant material and spider web, usually placed in a fork, and expertly disguised with lichen, moss, bark, or leaves.
Food
Their diet is a wide range of small creatures, mostly insects.
Migration
They appear not to migrate any great distance, but will make local movements with the seasons, particularly to higher and lower ground.References:
