We have a lot of robins around here, and in the fall they start to feast on the crab apples out my window. Sometimes I get several in the tree at one time, and they are pretty quick getting in, grabbing a couple of apples, and getting back out.
I had a couple of birds, however, seemed to have nowhere else they had to be. They didn’t seem to be after the apples too much but mostly looked around, especially when this guy caught a glimse of my camera’s focusing beam, then he would stare right at me:
Here you can see how the birds have really been cleaning the apples off the tree:
This guy had been eating apples, judging by the evidence left on his beak:
I hope they come back. They were a lot of fun to photograph.

amazing how you have robins up there this time of year. We haven’t seen any around here since early Sept.
We had some other type of bird eat our crab apples but we think he/she may have eaten too many and got a little “loopy” as we found regurgitated crab apple on our bedroom window along with some feathers. Hope your robins are smarter birds.
Fabulous photos!
