Watkins No Wonder We Like Robins They Mean Spring 'The worm does hot enjoy the robin's song" is a very old proverb. Prooably the worm is the only one that doesn't, for the robin is prob ably the most admired of any American bird. "I've just seen a robin," is just about the most welcome sentence one man can tell his neighbor for. it's an indication that spring is just around the corner. It is just a little sad to see the first robin trying to find something to eat while hop ping around in a couple of inches of snow. But the bird is liot discouraged. It knows that spring cannot be too long in coming. It senses the fact that soon the frost will be gone from the ground and with the drumming of early warm rains the earthworms will be working upward in the soil.-' Once a Forest Bird The robin was once a forest bird, but seeing what Was happening to the forests they very .wisely made their peace with industrialization and mankind and moved iii. Now they prefer to nest and raise their young in close associa tion with humans. When they can they will nest on any pro jection of the front or back porch or in the plum or cherry tree either in the front of the back yard. To show how very adapt able they are, Mr. and Mrs. Robin readily substitute other than natural materials for the nests. Usually, the nest is a mud-cup lined with soft grass es or feathers, with straw, grass or rootlets interwoven in the mud as a reinforce ment. However, they have been known to use iron shav ings instead of grass or string. In the deep mud-nest are laid four or five greenish-blue un marked eggs. The young rob ins demand a steady and con stant diet of worms, probably eating their weight in these materials every 24 hours. They may raise as many as three families during a sum mer. No one can justifiably say the fobin is a "squatter" of a "sponger" The birds more than pay their way in the amount of harmful insects they devour. As the short sum mer nears its end and the work of family raising is fin ished, the robins forget the hard work and gather in large groups, flying back and forth, feeding on late season worms and insects. Forget He's There During the summer and early fall people have become unmindful of the bird's pres ence These same people hard ly notice the departure of the birds. Suddenly folks are sur prised td find the robin is MAIL TRIBUNE, Medferd, Or. Thursday, March 31, 1960 A 7 Scientists Work on ? Guiding Airmen V Dallas, Tex.

He and most of his fellowi; will be on their way south to spend the winter; all around the Gulf states and as far' south as Cuba or Central America. Not all will leave however. Some will spend the" cold months in heavy e'edaf swamps. Often hundreds will form "robin-foosts" and rfr main until it is time for the migrant ones to return.
