Nature Studies With Children

Nature Study- Robins
Robins Unit Studies | Nature Studies
Robins are traditionally considered to be one of the first signs of spring. Around our house, though, we see robins all year round, even in the middle of winter. Robins are a migratory bird, but can be sometimes attracted to your backyard by making a suitable habitat for them. I know around our house, they love to eat our crab apples that have fallen to the ground. This helps feed them through the winter months. Robins are a nice bird to use in your nature study.
