I haven't noticed any big changes in Song Sparrows in Snohomish County on
my Everett/Mukilteo Breeding Bird Survey routes. During the 1st week of
June in 2015, 2016, and 2017 I conducted 100 three-minute point counts at
the same stops (spaced 1/2 mile apart) & at the same time of day. I found
this many Song Sparrows:

2017: 113 individuals at 77% of stops
2016: 92 individuals at 63% of stops
2015: 108 individuals at 64% of stops
