We live in the middle of the Adirondack Mountains in northern NY, about 3 hours at least north of Kooklabell. We rode over near Lake Champlain the other day to look for a snowy owl and we saw dozens of robins. I'm sure there were well over 100 at least. They were some in a couple different fields foraging and a few in nearby trees. I have never seen that many robins in the north country during winter before. In fact you rarely see any at all until about March or April. I have no idea why they were there or how long they had been there but it was a sight to see that many this time of year. There were lots of other birds in the area as well but they were ones you'd expect to see in the winter like blue jays, grosbeaks, starlings, etc.
