Island Park is a little behind but I've been hearing Cassin's Finches, Ruby-crowned Kinglets and Yellow-rumped Warblers for the past few days. The finches have probably been here for a while but I only started hearing them recently. Tree Swallows have also arrived and are claiming nest cavities. It's hot up here and feels like summer but we still have more arrivals to come.
