Yes!  I would say they are being seen in greater numbers.  We've had a
similar variety in my yard here in Oberlin - maybe some of yours made their
way north the past couple of days.  :-)  We had five white crowned sparrows
in the yard this evening, three rose breasted grosbeaks (two males and one
female), 10+ goldfinches, an oriole or two, and our first ruby throated
hummingbird arrived at the beginning of the week.
Loving it!
