I found a book this weekend that has the migration dates I needed. Paul Johnsgard's The Birds of Nebraska has that information, along with an extensive bibliography, which I always like to see. The dates are so important for me, though, because "spring" can mean March or June, depending upon where you live in the U.S. The highs are still in the 50s in the Sawtooth mountains this week, and it will be above 90 degrees in south Louisiana later this week.
I also think any book that mentions both watercolors (in reference to Cedar Waxwings), and Beethoven's Third Symphony (in reference to Song Sparrows) is a book that I am going to enjoy.
I have not heard the wren again today, and did not hear it yesterday, either.
