What does it mean when robins show up?

“Robins can survive extreme cold,” Howard explains. “In most places, robins can be seen in the winter. You'll see them traveling around, but it's not called migration because they're basically nomadic animals who follow the food.”

In the winter, many robins, particularly those in northern states and southern Canada, modify their diets. Because worms and insects aren't available, they look for fruit-bearing trees.

“Robins are actually social in the winter,” Howard says. “They create flocks because all those eyes and ears are useful for spotting predators. One of the advantages of flocking is that if one of them discovers food, it might alert the others.”

Even at subzero conditions, robins can keep warm enough to make it beneficial to stay through the winter. When spring arrives, those who stay close to their mating grounds will get first dibs on the best nesting territory.

“When you see them and it's so cold outside, you think to yourself, ‘My gosh, they'll all perish.'” Howard explains. “It's incredible how they survive the winter by fluffing their feathers and growing very large. Even though their internal temperature is 104° F, they can be found in temperatures below freezing. That's how good their feathers insulate them; simply through those layers of feathers, there can be a 100-degree difference.”

Put out water for robins if you want to see them in the winter. Birds can survive on their own by eating snow, but unfrozen water for drinking and bathing is always desirable.

When it comes to the robin, Britain's favorite bird, the stories and legends surrounding it are as vibrant as its breast. This small bird has been a sign of good luck, happiness, rebirth, and even as a messenger for lost loved ones for generations.

The robin is said to protect people from storms and lightning in stories dating back to Norse mythology. The robin is also known as the Oak King of Summer in Celtic tradition.

In 1960, and again in 2015, the robin was chosen as Britain's (unofficial) National Bird. So, what is it about this small bird that continues to captivate people's imaginations and hearts? Is it because it represents so much for such a small bird?

The legends surrounding the robin's red breast capture the spirit of a fearless soul. One is of the dwindling flames from a fire that was keeping the newborn Jesus warm. A gust of fire seared the little brown bird's chest as they fanned the flames with their tiny wings. Another legend claims that the robin's crimson breast is the result of Christ's blood, and in Wales, the robin is known as ‘brou-rhuddyn' or'scorched breast,' as a result of the robin scorching its breast in the purgatory fires giving water to the suffering souls!

The robin isn't always in perilous situations in mythology! Many people equate it with happiness, joy, good fortune, strong marriages, rebirth, and the conclusion of an old period with the promise of a new beginning.

The expression “When robins come, loved ones are near” refers to the notion that the robin is a messenger. When robins are seen, some people take solace in the fact that their loved ones are at rest, and many people believe that their deceased loved ones are paying them a visit.

Whatever one's views are, the robin's rich symbolism is impossible to ignore.

Why do robins come close to humans?

Home after a human gardener's activity of tilling the soil, weeding, or sweeping leaves, all of which brings priceless food into view.

Another factor for the tameness of Robins is their past. The Robin has always lived near humans because it is a forest edge species. It has coexisted with us in Britain for the past 150 years without being persecuted. In France, on the other hand, the practice of hunting and eating little birds has a much longer history, and Robins are more cautious on the other side of the Channel.

Another reason is a little more straightforward. Simply put, the Robin has an intrinsic curiosity that allows it to seek out new eating opportunities. Wrens, for example, are equally interested but more cautious when it comes to concealing. That's why we don't send Christmas cards with Wrens on them.

What does it mean when a bird visits you?

Why are there so many robins in my yard?

Since I was a small child, my mother and I have made educated bets about when we will see the first robins of the year.

Now since I live in northwest Iowa and she in eastern Iowa, she generally sees them first, so I imagine they'll be here sooner than I expect.

People may, however, mistake seeing a robin in the middle of winter for the arrival of spring. Because robin migration is so unpredictable, this isn't an exact predictor. Here are a few interesting tidbits about robin migration.

1. Not all robins migrate.

You may not notice robins in your yard throughout the winter since they spend more time roosting in trees and less time foraging for food in your yard than they would during breeding season.

Some robins only fly as far as they need to in order to find fruit. They may migrate a little, then have to fly a little further south when they need a larger supply of fruit, and then fly a little more south when they need more food.

2. Robin food thrives in temperatures of 37 degrees Fahrenheit.

Robins start digging for earthworms and insects as the ground thaws in the spring. When temps reach 37 degrees, robins tend to start showing up, or at least being more visible to human groups, because of those food sources. It's not that robins like that temperature; rather, it's because their food does. More than temperature, robins migrate in response to food.

At different times of the day, robins eat different foods. Have you heard the expression “the early bird gets the worm”? Robins consume more earthworms in the morning and switch to fruit in the afternoon.

3. Singing is essential.

Because of the criteria listed above, identifying where robins first appear in the spring can be difficult. It's possible that the spotted robins aren't moving north, but rather are overwintering.

The best way to spot robins travelling to their mating areas is to listen to them sing. American robins usually don't sing until they reach their breeding region, though there are exceptions, because singing is how male robins protect their territory.

Why are robins associated with Christmas?

If you've ever wondered why red robins are associated with Christmas, it's because Victorian British postmen were known as “Robins” due to their red-breasted uniforms. So the Christmas card's Robin came to represent the mailman who delivered the card, but there are linkages that predate this interpretation.

According to legend, the Robin's redbreast has a direct link to Christianity since the Robin removed a thorn from Christ's crown while he was on the cross and sung to relieve his pain, and the Robin's red breast was made by Christ's blood. According to legend, as the newborn Jesus was placed in his manger in the stable, the fire that had been built to keep him warm began to flare up very brightly. Because Mary had been distracted by the innkeeper's wife, a brown Robin positioned himself between the fire and the face of infant Jesus. The Robin fluffed out its feathers to protect the infant, but the fire burnt its breast in the process. Future generations of Robins inherited the red plumage of their forefathers. Have you ever observed that the red-breast of a Robin is actually orange? Before the English language had a word for the color ‘orange,' the bird was given its name. Even though we had the word for ‘orange' as in the fruit, many objects that were actually orange were labeled red instead. The color orange was not designated as a color until the 16th century in England. The color's name is derived from the fruit.
