We actually have large flocks of robins all winter -- while many robins do migrate, some flocks stay. They may actually not be "our" summer robins, but ones that nest further north and this is their winter vacation home. But we do have them in winter, eating fruit on the trees and shrubs. Sometimes they have bluebirds and cedar waxwings mixed into their flocks.
