When I tell people that there are robins present in South Dakota throughout most winters, the first thing I am asked is, "Then why don't I see them?"

In general, the nesting, or summer, range of robins extends from the tree limit in northern North America to southern Mexico, and the winter range covers southern Canada to Guatemala.

If you've noticed that robins look different in the winter, you're right: Our summer robins spend the winter in central California while Canadian robins take their places in our yards.

Robins, both males and females, hold their own separate feeding territories in the winter, which they defend vigorously. By around Christmas, many will have paired up. Initially, they do not spend much time together, merely tolerate one another, but will remain together until the following autumn moult.
