Observing Birds

[safron]

I have noticed this winter that robins are seeming to act differently than they did last winter. Last winter they stayed away from the town for the most part, but this year they seem to be much closer to households. Usually during winter around here mockingbirds, cardinals, and blue jays rule the massive oak tree behind my house. This winter it’s like things switched places, less blue jays and mockingbirds, but tons of robins suddenly appearing seemingly out of thin air. Feel like with the temperature drop coming in the next few days, that assortment of birds will probably change quite a bit.
