"While teleworking, I looked out the window to see a red breast light in a tree in the front yard in Anchorage, Alaska in January. It was an American robin."
Robins are migratory birds, but may stay in one place if the temperature is warm and/or there is food available.
This morning I heard and saw a robin in Fairbanks right near the fairgrounds. I have lived in Fairbanks for more than 30 years and have never seen a robin this early!
Mid-January robin sighting in Chuathbaluk.
The early arrival of robins in southeast Alaska.
A robin was sighted in southcentral Alaska; an early arrival.
A rare winter robin has been spotted in Bethel and it has folks wondering what exactly it means. Locals and a biologist say they think it has to do with climate change.
