[mr.sharp-photo]

got my first robin today.
just seeing if anyone else had a robin roaming their yards.

(I'm in East York)

Haven't had them in the yard yet, but we see them at a park close to us all year long, Lampton Woods.

they've been singing on sunny mornings for the last week near the Rouge.

There was a  singing male in my yard yesterday near Yonge and Sheppard.

I'm with Attila...  "they left?"

I saw a flock in the range of 50 in High Park back in January.  I've also seen them deep in Lambton Woods through the winter and at Bronte Creek.

I know what you mean, Robins are a sign of Spring.  So I guess if you see one start bopping around your backyard, they are coming out of the woods now.

Well, like a number of overwintering species some robins stay and some leave. Climate change may cause an increasing number of robins to stay into the futre. Also I should have said that numbers of over wintering robins varies from year to year, based on factors like year to year temperatures.

I saw a robin singing in Lithuania Park (north of High Park) this week (Tues, Wed or Thurs, naturally forgot to record the date).
Didn't see any around here this winter.

LOL they never left I have scene them all winter in Toronto High Park..

[angieinto]

We see them all winter too, but they only visit our yard during the spring and summer, and we haven't had any here yet.

There are over wintering robins in Lindsay at the college.

Here's one of the many Robins from High Park, the first week of January.  There's a group of Juniper trees about 1km north of Colbourne Lodge and they were eating the Juniper berries.  The trees were full of berries and Robins.

We had our first robins yesterday, about 15 in the back yard.

Between the thaw and the high winds last night, the main feeder fell over.  The chickadees and nuthatches were most annoyed with me this morning.

I've been steadfastly on the hunt to see my first Robin of the season....in Pickering!  I'm so jealous of all your sightings!  That first Robin makes spring seem truly like it is right around the corner...
