No. The nest is most commonly located 1.5-4.5 meters (5-15 ft) above the ground in a dense bush or in a fork between two tree branches, and is built by the female alone. The outer foundation consists of long coarse grass, twigs, paper, and feathers. This is lined with smeared mud and cushioned with fine grass or other soft materials. A new nest is built for each brood, and in northern areas the first clutch is usually placed in an evergreen tree or shrub while later broods are placed in deciduous trees. The American Robin does not shy away from nesting close to human habitation
No. They build a new nest each year because of safety, health, and instinct reasons.
Robins lay eggs two or three times per year. Each clutch of eggs contains four eggs on average.
If you mean the bird robins then.... Many American robins die in their first year, and many more die in their second year. Those that surive that long, however, commonly live to 5-6 years, and the longest recorded lifespan of a wild, banded bird was 13 years, 11 months.
Robins found in southern states do not migrate at all. Only robins from the northern states do. In the south, robin populations balloon as northern birds arrive.
In the United Kingdom, robins can be seen all year in gardens and hedgerows.
The eggs are 2.9 inches long and 2.2 inches wide on average. Eagles produce around one to three eggs per year, and bald eagles have the largest nests of any bird in North America. They reuse their nests each year, and they continue to expand their nests as time passes. The nests may reach a depth of 13 feet, 8.2 feet across and weigh 1 ton.

A typical nest is around 5 feet in diameter. Eagles often use the same nest year after year. Over the years, some nests become enormous, as much as 9 feet in diameter, weighing two tons.
Made of sticks and limbs, the eagles return to it year after year, adding more sticks each time. Some nests can weigh nearly a ton!
Yes they do. We have Bald eagle nests around here and they are the size of small cars. High up in the crook of Cotton Wood trees. Such an effort is not something you take on every year, best to reuse.

Bald eagles will add to their old nest each year for that year's nesting til the weight of the nest causes it to collapse.
Some people tend to take the nests down each year. If they don't like their current nest, I'm sure they will be able to make a new one! Hope this helps.
April-August
No. But they lay eggs in their nests that later hatch into baby birds. The mother feeds them worms and insects.
Yes they do.
