Robin in a platform feeder this morning eating peanuts and sunflower seeds in
St . Paul. Wednesday at Crosby Farm Park I saw one being eaten by a Red-tailed
Hawk. I’ve never seen a RTHawk with a bird before. John Ellis- St. Paul

Reading Bruch Falls robin roost account I looked up mine. It is a bit long.
That roost site has not been used since with any high numbers.
Winter Roost Site for American Robins

Washington County, and in early February I
Sorry, that in my excitement I forgot to post the location of the continuing
flocking robins, which is along East Minnehaha Parkway, just east of Hiawatha
Park in South Minneapolis.

I spotted an American Robin in southwestern Edina yesterday afternoon. I
know they aren't entirely rare to spot in the dead of winter, but I was
relieved to see it survived the arctic blast of the past few days.

Either more Robins are on the move, or the more secretive ones that
overwintered in river valleys have come out of seclusion to feed. My husband
was stunned at the number of Robins he observed on Summit Avenue
Same thing in my neighborhood in Bloomington.

And in the Wayzata-Minnetonka area. Someone care to make a metro-wide estimate
of numbers.? I'd guess in the hundreds of thousands. Most of the ornamental
crab apples are gone here. Robins across the street are beginning on the sumac
berries.

Is it common for there to be this many Robins or is this year unusual?

Here in the Great White north of Northern Crow Wing County I have yet to see
my FOY robin. Looks like they are waiting on the weather to break. It is
snowing like crazy at this time.

Although the American Robin over-winters here in greater numbers now, it is
still my harbinger of spring. This morning I saw my first of the season out
here on the farm in SW Dodge County.

Even in this bad weather the Robins continue to go back and forth every morning
and evening. My last full count was last
Saturday evening and had a count of 2,660 quite amazing.

For the last two previous evenings I have observed 100s of American Robins
moving toward a tree plantation. Many of the birds perch in one of the
deciduous trees and later duck into the densely growing spruce trees that vary
from 10 to 20 feet in height. This observation is on Grey Cloud Island
I am just curious..I have never had a Robin at my feeders...picking at
seed and eating suet...with
the woodpeckers,sparrows, siskins, finches and squirrels. Aren't they
more of an insect eater? Must like my
homemade woodpecker suet I made.

It was the craziest thing...to see a Downy Woodpecker and a Robin both
picking at the same piece of
suet at the same time..It is in a very accessible place for all the
critters. Even the rabbits hop up the steps to the deck
to get their treats..which was new one me as well.
Thanks all~
