Migration

Different populations are nonmigratory, partially migratory, or fully migratory. Birds breeding in northern and eastern Europe migrate to western Europe and North Africa. Some western European breeders migrate, with females migrating more than males. North African populations do not migrate. When European Robins do migrate, they usually move at night.
