I have a crazy robin in my yard. Last year he discovered the bird feeders by watching our also crazy eastern phoebes. I would watch him imitate their inappropriate phoebe behavior as he would sit on the feeder and eat sunflower seed. Naturally I thought I was delusional about this. This year he has stepped it up a notch. He will be standing on the ground under the suet feeder, jump up, stab at the feeder and get a big beakful of suet before gravity brings him back to earth. Sometimes this is repeated three or four times in a row. He may actually feeding young with the suet but I've yet to verify. Has anyone else seen this happening with robins? He does it constantly so I don't think it's an occasional bug.
