<p>Observing and understanding the behavior of wild animals is an integral part of enjoying the outdoors.  Hence the following question about the behavior of robins. </p>

<p>Even when it is not breeding season for robins I still often see male robins with female robins. But why?</p>

<p>I know that the male robin often chirps to find female robins within his territory. I also know that the male robin puffs his chest to try to impress a female robin. </p>

<p>But I have seen out in the country that even during the fall and late summer the male robins are still with female robins. I don't know whether it is to raise their fledgling chicks or what because only in videos and pictures have I seen robin chicks and robin eggs.</p>
