Help ROBINS find food to eat

ROBINS are back and no earthworms or bugs to EAT ?
You can help out by providing:
* small fruit, such as cranberries & raisins (soak them in water if hard)
* Robins love suet, dried mealworms, and sunflower hearts
* Place a bird bath outside, they love to take baths
* Put up a nesting box to attract a breeding pair
WILD BIRD CONNECTIONS have a great selection of food for the Robins, nesting boxes, and bird baths.

AMERICAN ROBIN FACTS:
* Robins can produce 3 successful broods in 1 year
* Only 25 percent of the fledged young survive to November
* From the 25%, only half will survive to the next year
* Robins can live to 13 years old, but the average is 6 year old
* Robins are considered to all arrive in the Spring, but many spend the winter in their breeding range
* Robins eat a lot of fruit in the Fall & Winter
* Robins eat different types of food depending on the time of day.  More worms in the morning and more fruit later in the day.
