A damp walk was brightened with the number of birds seen carrying food to hatched young as we tried to find the breeding birds in the park. We were rewarded with young fledgling American Robins foraging for food with their parents. American Robins eat large numbers of both invertebrates and fruit. Particularly in spring and summer, they eat large numbers of earthworms as well as insects and some snails. Leaders: Chris Marks and Karl Lukens.
