On March 18 at 11 AM, I heard a Song Sparrow singing in my front yard near Chemong Road and Reid streets. Awfully early, no?

Note: Yes, I’d say the bird is about a week earlier than usual. I’m not surprised, however, given the mild temperatures, and the fact that other migrants like grackles have returned. D.M.
