Winter Robins?

[Lunker]

Saw a robin in the south metro on December 27th. Wish I would have had a camera, as it was snowing heavily and looked very out of place. Wondering if this is as rare as I think, or an occasional winter sight.

Hey lunker, Robins overwinter in Duluth every year. One week ago I counted 15 in one mountain ash tree by my house. The berries are now gone and so are the robins. Though they only moved a block over to the next mountain ash berry tree.

Agreed. Dozens of Robins in the Mtn. Ash trees around the metro every winter.

We had a nice flock hanging around the crabapple tree at work up until the snow storm and I haven't seen them since.

I have two crabapple trees in the yard and a group of Robins is around most of the winter. A few days ago there was about 50 of them around coming and going to the crabapples for a meal. Here's one I could zoom in on.
