Robins usually don't go to bird feeders to eat because they mostly eat insects and fruit such as berries. Believe it or not robins make their nests close to where people live. I learned all of this when I would go to Michigan to visit family. Up in that state you see gold finches, many robins and song sparrows. Those song sparrows really amazed me because they do have a pleasant song and they look like an ordinary sparrow. I didn't see any mocking birds. The gold finches are very beautiful.

This one built its nest on top of the security light on my shop building this past Summer.


And a the year before that this dove built around the corner of the same building on a useless European Starling trap I built. That's a remarkably well-constructed nest for a dove.
