How
Do Robins Find Earthworms?
Robins

When robins tilt their heads, they're actually using one eye to look
for worms in their underground tunnels—and the other eye is
focused above, so the robin can spot predators, too!

Worm Hunting With a Robin

behavior will you see? Can you find an earthworm tunnel and look down
inside it? Why do robins have to tug so hard to pull a worm from the
ground? Observe carefully and ask lots of questions!
