Re: [cayugabirds-l] Robins

2021-02-10 Thread Todd Beeton
Same here. Quite surprised to see so many robins here (in Geneva) with so
much winter left yet to come. Although I noticed what drew them: my
neighbor has a berry tree that they are gorging on. Fun to watch them take
the berries up to the roof of my garage and feast, then wash it down with
water from the rain gutter.

It has also attracted a flock of starlings, who are also trying -- and
mostly failing -- to eat from my feeder.

Sadly I've only seen one cardinal in my yard all winter. I've bought some
new feed meant to attract them, so hopefully they will make my yard home as
well.

I had over 1000 robins fly over Hanshaw Rd S of intersection with W Dryden Rd

about the same time.  Since then I have been routinely seeing 100-200 moving

The large numbers at this time seem unusual, particularly since there are

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Robins

2017-02-06 Thread Marc Devokaitis
Hi Carol, all-


Over the past decade +, America Robins have been spotted in all states
except Hawaii in all months of the year.  Rather than a strict north/south
movement, Turdus migratorius lives up to its scientific name (migratorius =
wandering) and tends to winter where there is abundant fruit or soft soil.
See https://www.allaboutbirds.org/is-it-unusual-to-see-
american-robins-in-the-middle-of-winter/. and Birds of North America
online, American Robin > Distribution, Migration and Habitat (
https://birdsna.org/Species-Account/bna/species/amerob/distribution)

I used the Line Graph feature of eBird to plot winter occurrence of
American Robin in Tompkins County starting in 2013. Although the Feb. data
for 2017 is obviously incomplete, we can see a definite trend of increased
frequency of AMRO's occurring on checklists over the past few seasons.
 2015 is the exception; and you may recall that was the only recent winter
of extreme cold temps and above average snowfall. Note the spike in mid-Feb
occurrence in 2014 and 2016, another trend that seems poised to continue
this year.  But this is a very condensed slice of data; winters that are
warmer with less snowfall will mean we see more robins.

http://ebird.org/ebird/GuideMe?src=changeDate=amerob;
getLocations=counties=US-NY-109=US-NY=
species=on=12=02=2013=2017=
separateYears=16=1=Continue

Looking further back in eBird data, and/or looking at Tompkins County CBC
data could serve to illustrate more concrete trends for this region.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Robins

2017-02-05 Thread Gladys Birdsall
Yesterday morning, Jan. 4th, I was out walking the dogs, up here on Mt. 
Pleasant and there was a lot of activity with Robins.  Hard to count but maybe 
25-30, all around the house and out the driveway.  They were after Hawthorn 
berries.  There are also wet areas in the woods.  I know there are wild grapes 
around too.  It was 12 degrees F when I got up and about 10 AM it was still 
only 14 degrees F.

Today I see there are Robins around down the road, west of our driveway.  The 
past 3 days we have had a good amount of snowfall, dry fluffy snow, a good 
ground covering, so it was a surprise, but fun to see the Robins.

RE: [cayugabirds-l] Robins and cedar waxings

2014-03-08 Thread Naomi Brewer
Many years ago while visiting my uncle in Bonita Springs, Florida - about
this time of year - Robins were eating some black berries.  The bushes were
along the yard and as I watched the Robins some of them would flop to the
ground, try to get up, stager and eventually be able to hop off or fly. They
were drunk from those berries.

A large group of robins and cedar waxwings have been coming and going from
the red oak tree just north of Olin Library in the Arts Quad for hours. Many
more cedar waxwings are gathered in the pine trees near the southeast corner
of Olin Library by Stimson Hall right now.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Robins

2014-02-27 Thread Dave Nutter
In early January there were scores of American Robins along Lake Road near Long Point State Park in the Town of Ledyard. They eat the cedar berries. I've seen groups of Robins in such fruited woodsy areas all winter, but it does seem that recently there have been more of them in other places, flying about, and on exposed lawns. I wonder how many are the local winter woods birds fanning out and how many are an early spring influx.--Dave Nutter

RE:[cayugabirds-l] Robins

2014-02-26 Thread Marie P. Read
Lots of robins about…I just haven't posted about it! Scores of them feeding on 
the still-fruit-laden the crabapples in the Cornell Plantations, lots of them 
singing. Scores also on bare grass patches in a backyard along Mt Pleasant Road 
(around Baker Hill area).
Would people agree there's been a big influx? Or have they all just been hiding 
somewhere…my take is that a lot of robins that have been hanging out south of 
here have started to filter north again.

Just looking through the digests for the last few days and saw no mention of 
robins.  We saw about a dozen robins on Sunday afternoon.  They were browsing 
in a patch of bare grass on swamp college rd in Jacksonville.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] ROBINS

2010-01-06 Thread Tom Vawter
I noticed robins, not in large flocks but a few, around our place in
Lansing.  They hadn't been in evidence for most of the winter so far.  The
birds I saw were foraging in the few areas of open ground--mostly under
parked cars--free from the recent snow cover.  My guess was that the recent
snows had covered foraging areas they'd been using most of the mostly
snow-free winter, but that the snow and colder weather had forced them to
congregate in suitable areas.  Winter roosting aggregations is an
interesting question.

  While walking the dogs over the years, it has seemed to me that the robins
 cluster in the deeper gullies woods during harsh weather.  The behavior may
 have something to do with wind speed and temperature.  Also, if they roost
 en masse, they will be warmer.  A response to the North Atlantic
 Oscillation??

 ROBINS, so I stopped to watch.  The sky was pretty much full of what turned

 south. After a mile, the stream started again and continued till a couple
 miles south of the Triangle Diner, where I ran out of birds.  I didn’t
 actually count them, but my conservative estimate is 3000.  I thought they
 might be going to some preselected roost (following them was not an option
 today), but why so many this time of year?  Constructive ideas welcomed.
