What to do

Robins are amongst the tamest of our birds. Taming them takes time but it’s well worth it

Start by putting food out some distance from you

Gradually bring the food closer and closer

How close will the robin come?

It might even feed from your hand

Things to think about

  • How did it feel, building a trusting relationship with a bird?
  • How do you think the bird felt as it came closer to you?
