Garter Snake

Garter snakes primarily feed on small prey such as amphibians, small mammals, and insects. While they are not known to commonly eat birds, including robins, larger garter snakes might attempt to consume small or injured birds if the opportunity arises. However, robins are generally too large and agile for garter snakes to catch successfully.

Nope, they catch their prey in their jaws then swallow it alive. This is not a huge struggle due to their main diet being amphibians theyre usually all slipery so it slips dowb a treat :)
