Please, don't misunderstand, I have no clue whether the rudeness was coming from snowbirds. (an earlier draft included that statement, I should have left it in) In fact, I suspect it isn't the snowbirds who are rude, I suspect it is the full-timers who are frustrated and impatient.

In some way we (I'm a full-timer now) should be grateful for the snowbirds... if they didn't leave around April then we would have this crowding all year.

No, I wasn't accusing snowbirds of being rude, I was just noticing that the rudeness increased as the snowbirds returned.

Confirmation bias is real; I can find any number of articles that say so.
