Do many birds fly south for the winter?

Depends on where you live. In some areas, some types of hummingbirds stay year round. ---- Yes, however, if the winter is mild, and you keep the liquid feeder out, they will stay in your neighborhood through the winter season. This would probably just be one or two hummingbirds.

Do chipmunks hibernate all winter?

Nope. Birds, unlike most mammals, can fly, and therefore simply migrate away from bad weather, like winter. Rather than trying to find a suitable place to stay for months, and putting on enough fat to survive that long, they head south for much more moderate climes. Consider as well, that most birds that do stay in unfavorable areas during winter often burn off ALL their fat during the night. A chickadee will have to eat all day just to survive one night. As they are now, there is no conceivable way for them to survive an entire season hibernating.
