While some birds are known for spending time swooping through the air to gather up insects on the fly, robins are a little more relaxed about their hunting practices. These beautiful ruby-colored birds are known to spend time feeding on the ground munching up worms and beetles for fun. In fact, it is fairly common for these birds to hang out around freshly churned earth, so keep an eye out if you are gardening or handling any renovations on your property.
In addition to ground-based insects, robins are known to enjoy a variety of treats. These birds love a good sampling of mealworms, a hearty helping of fruit, and even crushed peanuts. Though some birds are more worrisome about what they will and will not eat, robins love a little variety in their diet, so it is always fun to leave them little surprises behind.
