 Connecticut State Bird American Robin Turdus migratorius
The American Robin ( Turdus migratorius) is a migratory songbird of the thrush family.
It is basically grayish in color, except for an orange patch on the chest; the similarity between this coloring and that of the smaller and unrelated European Robin ( Erithacus rubecula) led to its common name.
The American robin, Turdus migratorius, shall be the state bird.

 Turdus Musicus
Mitt ”riksnorske” vokabular strekker rett og slett ikke til, for denne konserten går inn i historien som noe av det mest energiske, sinnsyke og herligste musikkminnet jeg noen gang har opplevd.
Fra Turdus entret scenen kokte Sub, og publikum lot ikke seg be to ganger da mosterfuzzen til gitarist Johnni ble aktivert og ”operasjon øresus” ble satt i gang!
Jeg ga han en trussel om at hvis ikke signet Turdus, skulle jeg sende 200 terror e-post til han hver dag, ringe og legge på midt på natta og daglig bestille pizza på døren hjem til han.

 [No title]
Also on Dartmoor one sees the Turdus monstrous or the Finch sometimes called Sorus rufus rumpus which may be translated as sore red rump.
Finally, and sometimes confused with Turdus monstrou s is the "Red Winged Ouzel" zoologically known as the Turdus musicu s because of the strange noises it makes as it flies backwards.
The backward flight of the Turdus musicus makes it absolutely unique among finches and it is conjectured that this method of flight results from the fact that this bird suffers somewhat from the same affliction as the "Turdus Monstrous" but for different reasons.

Og nei, det er ikke mose og lav som forsvinner fra beitemarkene, men joiken til Turdus Musicus som kommer til å lage tynne, rastløse reinsdyrrockere av alle reinsdyra langt der oppe i det kalde nord.
Første gang jeg satte på albumet til Turdus Musicus ble jeg veldig skeptisk, enda et nytt hardcoreband som prøver å skille seg ut med billige triks, denne gangen av alle ting i form av joik.
Joik var for oss fleste her nede i sør (i alle fall på min alder) det samme som Ante som vi mer eller mindre vokste opp med.

 101 Taxonomy - www.101science.com
For instance, the bird Europeans commonly call a robin is a different species of bird from the robin Americans recognize.
The confusion ends when the birds are referred to by their scientific names: the European robin is Erithacus rubecula, while the American robin is Turdus migratorius.
When classifying organisms, scientists study a wide range of features, including those visible to the naked eye, those detectable only under a microscope, and those that can be determined only by chemical tests.

 "Species, Speciation, and the Environment" by Niles Eldredge, Ph.D.
Species also remain stable because of the very nature of their internal structural organization; all species are broken up into local populations that are integrated into local ecosystems.
A population of the American robin, Turdus migratorius, faces a very different existence in, say, the wet woodlands of the Adirondack Mountains in the Northeastern United States, compared to what the local populations of the same species experience in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
Such disjunct populations encounter very different food, water availability, ambient temperatures, potential predators, and possibly even disease vectors.
