The Misfortune Report

The Robin Raw Deal Award goes to this bird:
"Birdwatchers from all over Britain who gathered in Grimsby to catch sight of a rare American robin were horrified to see her eaten by a passing sparrowhawk. "

"It was a terrible moment" - Graham Appleton, British Trust for Ornithology

The robin's misfortune is, in my view, compounded by having the Latin name Turdus migratorius.
