available" because I raised an abandoned baby robin last summer. My robin preferred large, juicy earthworms, but when we started getting her ready to go back into the wild, she ate almost any kind of bug, insect or worm that caught her eye. She didn't like crickets, but would eat grasshoppers, at least the soft parts of them. She didn't like ants, but she was bitten by some and that could be why. She ate corn kernels, wheat seeds, and bird seed. She probably ate berries also, although we didn't try them with her.
