Snow geese. Big fancy showy birds that show up once a year and take over huge tracts of land and make all kinds of noise and shit on everything, clean up nothing and leave only to come back and do it again next year. Snow geese !
Years ago around here, they called them freedom flights. Escaping the oppressive dem controlled city to enjoy more freedoms in the more rural areas. Haven't heard the term in years though.
No. Snowbirds are people from cold places who visit warm places in winter. Our economy in Phoenix was heavily dependent on them, maybe not so much any more. Of course many of them come from blue cities, but it is to hang by a pool in relative warmth for a few weeks. The opposite are sandbirds, the desert dwellers who escape to cool places in the summer.
PS If you want a new term for the ones fleeing blue shitholes, I think you have to distinguish between the clueless and the malicious, the invasive political strategists who influence 5he clueless.
Yeah, but we use that for liberals who stay put, like the ones who live in Portland and don't leave. I was looking for a term for snowflakes that move to Wyoming or South Carolina, and get surprised or call the police when they see kids play in the dirt without supervision and stupid things like that. Someone else suggested Fruitopians, and another one was Refu-Geese.

What the difference between a Yankee and a Damn Yankee?
Yankees (Snowbirds) come visit and go home.
Damn Yankees come and stay.

Bluebirds
Bluebird makes sense.
We call them carpetbaggers
Hmm. That implies that they're sinister, whereas a lot of them are just fools.

There is already a term snowbirds. Its Canadians who go from Canada to Florida for the Winter.
Yeah, but I meant a different term, for a different reason. Leading candidates include Fruitopians, Bluebirds, and Refu-Geese.
Shitbirds?
