The same holds true in my Pleasanton yard.

I'm quite sure what I am seeing in my yard, both White- and Gold-Crowned
Sparrows, are earlier-than-usual migrants.  The ones who come to my yard for
the winter usually show up about yesterday's date, spend the winter, and
then migrate back to their breeding grounds in the spring.  They feed at our
platform feeder and on the ground below our hanging feeders, observable from
the kitchen window.  They are definitely not residents in my yard.

I'm curious about White-Crowned Sparrow migration. I know they're resident
along parts of the coast. Just how far inland do you have to go before
    
  
  
they
  
  

    
become migrants (i.e., have some of these "early" white crowns been here
all along, but inconspicuously).
