First Western Tanager in yard today. Chipping Sparrow came on Wednesday and last Golden-crowned Sparrow seems to have finally left. Purple Finch in numbers of two to six coming and going, American Goldfinch since midweek. Soon as the Black-headed Grosbeak gets here we will know for sure, weather or no, it is spring.
