Good morning,
I’m following up on my post from yesterday. The reason I was surprised to
hear the GCSPs singing yesterday is because they arrived later than usual
the past two yrs in Corte Madera (according to my observations at Marin
Country Day School). I’ve been wondering if they’re arriving later
everywhere, a possible shift with climate change? I am curious if those I
heard yesterday were just stopping for a meal and moving on or staying.
Lucas Corneliussen said he heard 2 in the gulch yesterday.
Dede Sabbag wrote and said last year they arrived on the 22nd in Sonoma.
Does anyone have long term data arrival dates for Marin County?
