Exploring the Menu
Robins eat a variety of foods. Fledglings must learn many things before they can feed themselves: How can I get worms in summer? Where do I find insects to eat? How can I get blueberries, crabapples, buckthorn berries? How can I get those fruits that grow on delicate twigs just out of reach?
