Investigate Northern Outposts: When Will Robins Reach the End of the Trail? | ||||||
We're
pleased to announce our official Northern Observation Posts
(NOPs) — the
22 yellow stars on the robin maps. Because few people live in the most
remote regions, we have found willing volunteers to watch for the robins
to arrive at the northern limits of their range. For a few, the waiting
is over — but most still are waiting!
Robin migration is tightly connected to weather. One theory says that robins migrate along with average temperatures of 36 degrees F. Investigate this theory and it can help you make predictions about when the robins will reach the NOPs and the end of the trail! Dig in here:

Take the challenge! See NOP comments and start your prediction log today. (We'll be filling in the arrivals and singers.) |
