Robins! Robins!

Right now I have a flock of about 60-100 robins in mine and my neighbors yard. I threw out some tortilla chips for them to eat. They are hungry.

I thought they were supposed to fly south for the winter?

1. I was just going to post about this.

We had a flock in our field on the 24th. There were Robins, Jays, and Sparrows. I thought I was hallucinating, honest. I have never seen them here in NE Kansas this time of year. We don't see them until the end of February. It freaked me out a little. The are flocking, not nesting, but they don't overwinter here. Ever. My cats were a little freaked out as well. We have had a foot of snow this month, but it didn't last very long, and is 60 degrees today. We have a lot of berry trees, so I don't worry too much about them eating.

Really, we don't have anything but Starlings and Crows here this time of year. What is up with this?

2. There's a flock at my workplace too

About 15 miles away. They are thick. Most are eating stuff off the cedar trees and anything else they can find. My sister saw them too. She said there must have been a hundred or more.

They are in big flocks like starlings.
