Interesting post. I think we are about the same age.
Canada Geese were actually thought to be in danger of extinction in the late 1950s. Apparently, DDT was wreaking havoc with their eggs.
Now, they have abundant food and shelter. No need to fly south?
Our neighborhood squirrels still build their large nests in the trees, and spend much of the winter there. Some, however, seem to be semi tame, and take advantage of the many people who feed them while attempting to feed the birds all winter.
I think we are looking at adaptation rather then any global warming that may be happening.
