Description

I was concerned when I saw this robin. I thought it had gotten attacked. I found out that Robins start molting their flight feathers in mid-June, and have finished molting them by early September. It appears they have started early this year in April. They molt their body feathers from late July into October. One-by-one, each feather is pushed out by a new one, and most feathers last for a whole year. I took this photo on April 12, 2018, Temple, GA (USA).
