We had a large flock of robins come by this afternoon. They only stayed for a few minutes. Last week, Chris put out cranberries for the visiting winter robins, but none were eaten. Today, several of the robins found cranberries and ate them. Finally!!!

The Carolina Wren and the White-throated Sparrow are common birds in New Jersey in the winter but harder to photograph because they rarely come to bird feeders and spend most of their time in the underbrush.

Did you put out dried, frozen or fresh cranberries? We have winter robins here in southern coastal Maine and I would like to put something out for them when there is a lot of snow on the ground. Thanks.
We put out fresh cranberries, but the robins were not interested in them immediately. They ate them a week later, after the cranberries had frozen and defrosted a few times.
Just checking this out .... a friend sent me the link from your side of the water!! I'm from the UK & have been waiting for my garden to mature enough to get one Robin never mind a flock!! We got our first sighting today Boxing Day 2010 .... Great Joy :)
