Rabble, Riot, Bobbin, or Blush

If you google what a group of Robins is called, you get a whole host of options to choose from!
So whether you opt for rabble or riot, or bobbin or blush – we’ve had a bunch of these birds in the backyard lately.

They have been frequent visitors in the fountain, like this beauty who was taking a leisurely bath…

…and this one, who was patiently waiting for a turn.

The Robins that weren’t in the fountain, were either feasting on berries in the Lantana bush…

…or dripping dry from their baths.

Having a round, or reliant, or blush, or breast of Robins in the backyard has definitely added to the entertainment! And did I mention that hood, squabble, worm, and rouge are terms used as well? For a birdnerd that’s also a wordnerd, having so many fun choices is a delightful dilemma!
