In winter, robins are nomadic. They fly in flocks and eat the berries of trees and shrubs that hold their fruit through the winter, including red cedar, American holly, hawthorn, and certain dogwood and crab apple species. As they deplete the food sources in one location, they move on in search of a new supply. Habitat and Range
Winters in Scotland have an average low of around 0 Â°C (32 Â°F), with summer maximum temperatures averaging 15â17 Â°C (59â63 Â°F). In general, the western coastal areas of Scotland are warmer than the east and inland areas, due to the influence of the Atlantic currents, and the colder surface temperatures of the North Sea.
If you want to visit in the winter months you will see another side of Scotland. Sometimes roads get blocked by snow, but mostly the weather is cool and wet. It can get very cold, but the warm Gulf Stream from across the Atlantic keeps Scotland from consistently low temperatures. Daylight hours are shorter. But while in summer all is generous and verdant abundance, in winter there's a stark beauty to the landscape.
