Just for the record and signifying maybe nothing, On January 5, while observing the birds at the feeders and on the ground, I saw two Robins.

Earlier in the week ist was 75, an all-time record high for the date.

Maybe there is a message there

Every few years, if we have a mild winter, I see them in Wisconsin, too.

While they mainly love worms and bugs, they will also eat seeds and berries, so they can find things to eat. I have never seen one at my bird feeders, though.

I had a ‘piebald’ Robin a few springs ago. He looked like a Robin, but his FACE was entirely white. Any white areas on a bird or animal, that would normally be a darker color is referred to as, ‘piebald.’
