Do not be surprise I gave you an award, this is coming off of a very boring Super Bowl.I found this at the Audubon website:
Q. Should I be feeding a robin wintering in my backyard? I live in northern Minnesota.
A. Robins only spend the winter in areas where there is some food available, so feeding them isn’t necessary. Nevertheless, a lot of people enjoy offering them food, creating a special bond with this homey and pleasant bird. Robins will NOT take birdseed on a feeder; they’re primarily ground-fed birds. Sometimes they’ll take frozen fruit, though it’s often hard to teach them that fruit in a feeder is food! (Robins learn at an early age that fruit grows on trees and shrubs. They simply do not expect to find it anywhere else.) One of the best kinds of food for wintering robins—and the easiest for them to discover—is mealworms. You can put out a dozen mealworms on a sunny day when the temperature is above freezing, and nearby robins will often notice their wiggly movements and investigate. Once robins discover the mealworms, they’ll come back even when the temperature is below freezing and the mealworms are stiff. Then if you start offering fruit in the same spot, the robins are more likely to notice it. Some favorite robin foods are blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries. You might as well buy bags of frozen fruit for them, since it will freeze outside anyway!
