Robins utilize all four ...they take three or four hops then freeze
-if they feel movement in their feet they cock their heads if the worm cannot be readily seen.

If they see it (right off) they yank it out and dismember it on the spot and swallow the pieces
which they regurgitate into the mouths of the baby robins.

i had a nest in my green house one year and thought it was cool and even hand fed them.
NEVER EVER AGAIN!!! the adults become HOSTILE ...the "little pals" fly out of the nest prematurely
and get lost as they aren't ready to fly really.
