Phenological changes due to an earlier onset of spring are species dependent though.

Groundhogs throughout Canada are split in their spring predictions, with some shadows suggesting six more weeks of winter while others have forecasted an early spring.
Canada’s most celebrated groundhog, Wiarton Willie, is predicting an early end to this year’s erratic winter weather after the creature failed to see its shadow Saturday morning.

Yes. this is absolute and unequivocal proof of global warming just like if he were to have cast a shadow and predicted more winter. Remember, if it gets warmer it's global warming. If it gets cooler, it's global warming. If it stays the same it's global warming. And it's all the fault of humans because if we evil polluting humans did not exist the earths climate would be totally different.
