Interesting, Tess! I noticed an influx of Robins over the summer, but the
numbers didn’t feel unusual. They all just about disappeared weeks ago in my
area of town just inside the SW loop. I was surprised to see so many flying
over Clapp yesterday since I have only been seeing a few each week as I bird
about town. The cemetery had only a couple the other evening, too. I wonder if
they are staging for migration somewhere near Clapp and that’s why you have
been seeing more of them? I’m interested to hear what others have been
experiencing with the Robins, too.

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
