Because when they first start nesting they usually nest in Evergreen Trees. These trees provide shelter and hiding spots for the robins before the leaves on the other trees appear.
The reason these birds often have more than a couple nests is because certain things might change. There may be a predator in the area, so they move to another tree. There may be better or more food in a different area or around another tree. SO they build a different nest. These are just a few reasons as to why the robins have many different nests.
