White-breasted robin

The white-breasted robin (Quoyornis georgianus) is a passerine bird in the Australasian robin family Petroicidae. Occasionally it is placed in the yellow robin genus Eopsaltria. It is endemic to southwestern Australia. Unlike many other Australian robins, it lacks bright colours in its plumage, being a predominantly greyish bird with white underparts. Like other closely related Australasian robins, it is a cooperative breeder. It is sedentary, with pairs or small groups maintaining territories.

The white-breasted robin ranges between 14.5 and 17.0 cm (5+3⁄4 and 6+3⁄4 in) long, with a wingspan of 22–25 cm (8+3⁄4–9+3⁄4 in). The male weighs 20.5 g (0.72 oz), while the female is lighter at 16.5 g (0.58 oz). Males and females are similar in coloration, with blue-grey upperparts, paler eyebrows, and whitish underparts. The grey tail is tipped with white. Bills and feet are black in colour, while eyes are dark brown. Birds from the northern part of its range are smaller and darker grey in colour. Juveniles are brownish.
