I don't really think permanent residents despise snowbirds. Most of us have many snowbird friends and I, for one, hate to see them leave. We don't like the extra traffic, more crowded golf courses, pools, restaurants, grocery stores and shops. However their business helps keep our restaurants, stores and shops in business and provides jobs for thousands of people. We joke about snowbirds and complain about them, but truthfully, we wouldn't have near as many businesses and options to shop without them.
