Lots of pictures from photographer Daniel Cadieux documenting American Robins catching small fish and eating them during a snowy Canadian winter.

Two Canadian photographers captured American Robins fishing and gobbling down their catches! Who knew they did this?

After this, I will post a link from Mr. Cadieux to his blog documenting this behavior, with lots of pictures.

In other news, I've been using the REAL #BirdApp -- #Merlin from Cornell Labs. So far, I've identified #HouseWren, #AmericanRobins, #NorthernCardinal, #TuftedTitmouse, #PurpleFinch, #EasternTowhee and #RedEyedVireo -- just from my backyard! Some of them are migratory. Will post more about them soon. The #AmericanRobin is nesting next to the house, so that one comes up a lot.

Walked to the #BunkerHill monument in the next town over. There were lots of #AmericanRobins. *still chilly* brrr

I was incredibly lucky to see a nest of #AmericanRobins go from eggs to fledglings this month, so I’m posting a recap thread for anyone who is interested in the details of this nest. #Birds #Birding #BackyardWildlife #WesternMassachusetts
