Although I have not done any counts (thus this is purely anecdotal), the
numbers of Violet-Green Swallows at White Pass and Snoqualmie Pass seem
normal for this time of year.

I have noticed a trend of late arrivals, e.g., we saw no Clark's
Nutcrackers at, or on the S side of, Ingalls Pass on a ski tour there on
Wednesday, May 7.
