Robins

Steve Connally

Been here much more than a while
Have to say I've never seen this before. I have a large flock of Robins in my yard in about an hour they have stripped my holly trees of all the berries and have demulched my flower beds onto the sidewalk and driveway. Poop everywhere.
 
I usually have a flock strip the dogwoods in the fall and a holly hedge later in the winter.

Many years back, I raised a robin. One day I fed it a few wild strawberries and several days later it picked all of the red M&Ms out of a package I let spill on the table....stupid bird.

that's cool. how long did you have the bird for?
 
Not long. Once it started to fly, I got to "fly" it about three times before it didn't return. I'm sure it had a VERY short life having no skills to fend for itself.
 
My first year in Georgia, I saw a flock of gross beaks make a Holly hedge come to life. The hedge was writhing like a snake and they had it stripped in about 10 minutes.
