No Phoebes?

I haven't seen any Eastern phoebes yet this year and usually I have by now.  I haven't even heard them calling "fee-a-bee" or "cheese burger."  They have a 3 syllable call as compared to the black capped chickadee who sounds similar but has only 2 syllables.  Other birders have noted the lack of phoebes too.  I wonder what is going on that accounts for the lack of these little gray nondescript birds?
