More Winter Robins

Robin

We had a large flock of robins come by this afternoon. They only stayed for a few minutes. Last week, Chris put out cranberries for the visiting winter robins, but none were eaten. Today, several of the robins found cranberries and ate them. Finally!!!

  1. Did you put out dried, frozen or fresh cranberries? We have winter robins here in southern coastal Maine and I would like to put something out for them when there is a lot of snow on the ground. Thanks.

  2. We put out fresh cranberries, but the robins were not interested in them immediately. They ate them a week later, after the cranberries had frozen and defrosted a few times.
