  Migration Basics
They were (and largely still are) tropical birds, but as the great ice sheets retreated from North America, they gradually expanded their ranges to exploit rich temperate food resources and nesting space, filling unoccupied niches in the U.S and southern Canada while evading intense competition in the tropics.
This means that a few birds will arrive at any location very early (the dots on the migration map), but the bulk of the population will follow later, so you may not see your first hummingbird for several more weeks.
The number of birds migrating south may be twice that of the northward trip, since it includes all immature birds that hatched during the summer, as well as surviving adults.

The Cardinal is really a Southern bird where, for years, Southerners referred to the Cardinal simply as "the red bird." However, McCarthyism and the red scare, plus a class action suit by a group of scarlet tanagers, put an end to most of that.
I'm sure bird feeders have contributed to this expansion, but our suburban yards, with their plantings of shrubs and bushes, have probably done the most to help the Cardinals.
Although there are records of some Cardinals having lived more than 13 years in the wild, they certainly would have had many different mates over that time.
