Greetings All::
Almost every year since I have been here there has been a period in
fall where the number of American Robins goes from single digits in my
yard to triple digits, heading southward, in the skies above. The
fall spectacular can involve hundreds of birds streaming directly over
my yard per hour and generally occurs during late evening. I think my
personal best (using a triple digit clicker) was 821 in one hour!

I noticed Jennifer Miller's recent comment about seeing Robins at Clapp Park.
There were a large number. There have been more Robins in my backyard this
summer and early autumn than I can remember. Has this been common around
town? At times there are four or five Robins in the bird baths with more
waiting to hop in. This usually occurs around 5:30-6:30. They appear at
other times, but not in such large numbers.
Thanks for any comments,
Tess
