In April 2025, many of us are joining the 30-Day Nature Observation Challenge. Each day, the goal is to share an observation—a plant, animal, or sound—experienced while spending time outdoors. Wise individuals have noted that observing nature enhances mindfulness, reduces stress, and deepens our appreciation for life’s interconnectedness—a challenge well worth accepting.

Today, my observation is on the ROBIN.

As we embark on our 64th consecutive monthly challenge, Jeff Neelon, Jaclyn Donovan, and I feel ready to inspire others to join us. Step outside and let nature awaken your senses—breathe in the fresh air, feel the warmth of the sun, and listen as the world comes alive. Every moment outdoors is a chance to reset, recharge, and reconnect with the beauty around you.

Nature Observation 30-Day Challenge Guidelines

As with previous challenges, participants are encouraged to adapt the guidelines to fit their own circumstances. Commit to spending time outdoors for the next 30 days, observing a new plant, animal, or sound each day.

  1. Record your observations to track your journey.
  2. Share your findings with a challenge partner if you have one.
  3. Join the conversation by posting on social media with the hashtag #Coach4adayChallenge.

Observation #24-Robin

There’s a wealth of data on wildlife populations, and one estimate suggests there are over 370 million robins in North America. They’re easily one of the most beloved songbirds, known for their iconic red breast and cheerful, melodic calls.

There is no shortage of them in my backyard. At this time of year especially after a rain you can watch them hopping across my lawn attempting to capture earthworms. You sometimes have to look quick because they are very efficient at their work.

Check out this video that explains how they do it.
