Re: [mou-net] Cardinal numbers
Manley, we had good numbers of cardinals before we left for Florida in mid- January--usually about 20 most evenings. We returned March 1 and our population is down to about 8-10, sometimes fewer.

Re: [mou-net] Cardinal numbers
I wonder if lack of snow cover this winter is causing the low numbers of cardinals in some places. Birds have been fewer at my feeders in general this winter. I suspect they have been more spread out than usual.

Re: [mou-net] Cardinal numbers
I've had a pair all winter coming to my feeders which is typical. I hear them all over right now. There are several singing in my neighborhood (Plymouth) and I heard them at work today (Arden Hills). Seems pretty normal to me. I've also had Juncos at my feeder since the weekend.

Re: [mou-net] Cardinal numbers
I have many more cardinals in my yard in south Minneapolis than even five years ago. I have seen as many as four pairs at one time for the past two years.
