All 20 were sitting in our front ash tree and neighbors tulip tree. I opened the door to see if I could hear them singing. They were silent. Several flew away. This is actually my second sighting of a wave. I saw one on (I believe) 02-03-14 and there were about 30-40+. Covering several trees. Today, they shared the tree with what appeared to be European Starlings. Picture isn't very good (taken through screen). But, you can see a few of the red-breasts clearly on about 3 of the birds. This pic shows when the majority of the birds were starlings. When the starlings flew away, more robins appeared.
