Serious answer... http://www.garden-bi...birds/robin.htm " Robins are rarely seen or heard during midsummer (July-August) when they are moulting and become rather retiring. " " British Robins are mostly sedentary though a few migrate to Spain and Portugal for the winter. Juveniles disperse from their natal sites in May but very rarely move further than a few kilometres (miles). " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cairneyhill Jambo Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I'm pretty sure some migrate to Spain and Portugal but most of them are resident. The reason that you don't see so many in the summer is that food is more plentiful and they don't need to visit gardens for food.
