American Robin in Florida

 

American Robins are found in Florida, particularly during the winter months. Here's a bit more detail:

Seasonal Presence:

• Winter Migration: American Robins migrate south to Florida from northern states in the fall and are commonly seen throughout the state during winter (typically from October to March).
• Breeding Season: They are less common in Florida during the summer, as they generally breed farther north.

Habitat:

• They can be found in a variety of habitats, including parks, gardens, suburban areas, and open woodlands. In Florida, they are often seen feasting on berries and foraging on lawns for insects.

Diet:

• During their time in Florida, they rely heavily on fruit from native plants like holly, cedar, and cherry trees, in addition to worms and insects.

During my weekend visit to a local park, I managed to photograph one. Here are some of the pictures I captured.

  

Pictures were taken using a Canon R6 Mark I, EF100-400L Mark II and 1.4X Mark III Extender.
