A North American robin (Turdus migratorius) tosses back bright red holly berries while perched in a dense thicket near the Umpqua River in rural southwestern Oregon on December 21, 2025. Holly is a familiar symbol of the winter holidays, often used in seasonal decorations, but its berries are toxic to humans. Some birds, including robins, can eat them safely and rely on the fruit as an important cold-weather food source. (Photo by Robin Loznak/Rex Features/Shutterstock)
