Robin soldiers walk.
In formation in the yard
Claiming their booty.
---
Robins sing to Dawn
They are first to greet the night
Robin red breasted
-----
Robins, wise birds all.
Seldom fooled by Cow Birds schemes.
Bad eggs rejected.

Pretty good. Well formed and good imagery

The Robin is painted in your words
taking a moment to reflect in zennish thought the metaphoric robin.....soaking up the nature that is so well written within a haiku the depth and wisdom of nature.
As for the structure usually 5-7-5 but like many poetic genres it is evolving moving away from strictness of the old.
Good luck in the contest. Thank you for my moments of reflection.
