I'm seeing a lot of strange behavior in the animals that frequent our back yard oasis that has me very worried that it's going to be a nasty winter.

Here's just a few:

The sparrows are flocking at the feeders in groups of 15-30 at a time.  We normally don't see this kind of grouping until early to late October.

The hummingbirds are going through 2 quarts of nectar each week.  Generally, we don't refill the feeders like this until the end of September.

Large monarchs are passing through the area (migratory).  They generally peak in the KC area around the 20th of September.

The critters are doing their thing from 3-8 weeks early this year.  Does this mean Winter is going to read it's ugly head accordingly?
