I would guess that the variety and quantity of food now available in =
winter, as a result of bird feed, roadkill and dead chickens, is much =
greater than it was 70 years ago. This would tend to permit survival of =
vagrants from the south and migratory birds who stuck around.

  Climate change or something else?

  Down here in Yarmouth, I saw my first cardinal in 1992.  Now they are =
regulars the year around.

  A flock of eleven common grackles has just landed and is scrounging =
birdseed down here on Wyman Road, south of Yarmouth.

  Thought they migrated!
