    If you feed seed you won’t get many robins, they’re insectovores so you need mealworms or even crickets. You’ll sometimes get them with suet in the winter too.

      I guess they popped up around the time I started putting up suet! I only recently started feeding mealworms. Best thing I got was a wild ferret but the other birds seem to love them! A couple of chaffinches seem to have become regulars. I saw a robin or two pop up but they don’t seem to like my yard too much.
