It appears that there is a massive overwintering effort by American
Robins in southern MN this winter. I have been seeing several flocks
daily in the Mankato/St. Peter area (total probably around several
hundred birds), and they seem to be just as common in the Twin Cities
judging from the CBC results I've seen thus far. There are usually
several locations in southern MN each winter that attract
overwintering robins, but so far this winter the robins are literally
everywhere.
My question is this: is this something new, or have there been similar
overwintering efforts in the past?
If you have any relevant information about this, please share! Thanks.
