We have robins here in winter, and not just a couple. What gives?

Answer

Believe it or not, robins will overwinter as far north as southern Canada when the weather isn’t too severe and food supplies are abundant. A lot of city subdivisions have planted mountain ash trees, whose berries are a favorite of robins. This also contributes to their hanging around during the winter.
