Do southern states get annoyingly inundated with birds during the winter?

Cosworth · 09-26-2006, 04:11 PM

Soon, we up here in the northerly states will be relatively bird free. No more chirping, schitting or such for quite a while. Just curious that with all the migratory birds of northern states relocating further south during the winter months, is there a noticible increase in the bird population in southerly states or is it a negligible change? I'm assuming that there are birds that do not migrate to the north during the hot months and are present year-round in addition to the migratory ones.

I want an open season on canadian geese!!

boxered · 09-26-2006, 04:13 PM

Yes, they migrate here..the shore is covered with gulls, pipers, plovers, etc. I also get quite a variety of warblers in the back yard which are never here in the summer.

Got the feeders loaded and ready to rock :thumbup:

The Kildeers and Canadian Geeses are getting pretty thick down here. Mostly its the mosquitoes that are thickest right now.

Yup, hence why duck/goose season is up and running.

pnilly · 09-26-2006, 04:16 PM

It's not that bad. The birds I can deal with, it's the stupid old ****s in their gigantic motorhomes I can't stand.

Sharkbait · 09-26-2006, 04:19 PM

Yes. I had an egret on my car once here.

Obsessing? No. Just mentioning it in a thread about birds? Yes.

Scoobie Noobie · 09-26-2006, 04:55 PM
