I've had very high chickadee and titmouse traffic since putting the feeder back up 1 week ago e.g. 3-4 chickadees at the feeder at one time (versus 1-2 normal years) and visits sustained for much longer periods, which makes me think there are more birds.  Will be interesting to see if this is picked up in the CBCs.

Nothing scientific but I have the general impression of more chickadees 
and titmice this fall than in the previous 5 or 6 years.
