Almost all the American Robins that go South for the Winter end up in the Southeast U.S. We actually have more Robins here in Winter than we do in Spring and Summer. we also have triple the number of Great Blue Herons in the Southeast in the Winter than in the Summer. As a matter of fact, Winter in the Southeast U.S. is the second best season for bird watching. Spring is the best Season; Summer is the WORST! Most of us birders don't even bother looking in Summer because it is just a waste of effort. From now until the end of May I will see the most birds and get the best pictures of the year. * * * * A bird in the hand......can sometimes be a mess.

Member # 6964 posted                    We do watch the geese every fall, gather up and leave......Are they canadian geese? I saw zillions of black birds gather in our yard this fall, I wondered where they went.. I knew Robins went .......... It is sort of a game here in the Spring, Who can see the first Robin.......It means spring is on the way here.. What state are you in? Some folks here say state of confusion , we are in.

That is in the north-central part of the state. Our Robins are here year-round. Like I said we have more Robins in the Winter than in the Summer. Here in Tennessee our harbinger of Spring is the Louisiana Waterthrush, one of the FIRST migrants to arrive from South America. They usually arrive in late March or early April. By the end of April and Early May we usually have over 200 species of birds in Nashville. * * * * A bird in the hand......can sometimes be a mess.
