American Robin

Robins can eat mealworms. In fact, they particularly enjoy them.

Adult robins can enjoy Medium, Large, or Giant live mealworms.  During nesting season,   Medium mealworms can be a convenient size for adults carrying food back to their young. Dry Roasted mealworms are also an easy option for backyard feeders.

Robins are skilled at finding mealworms using more than just sight. As worms move, they create subtle sounds, and birds’ acute hearing can help them locate their food.

Offering mealworms in a low-tray feeder or small dish at a bird-feeding station makes them easy for robins to find. Robins, catbirds, bluebirds, and other worm-loving backyard birds may quickly discover the new feeding spot.
