I also heard them twice this week in So. Minneapolis. I was out walking the dog and they were faint but no mistaking them.

Started writing down when I see birds for the first time n Spring at our feeder a couple of years ago. White Throated Sparrows arrived April 19 this year and April 17 last year. They do seem to stay for awhile, their numbers grow for a few days, then decline and they are gone north to the Boreal forest. Saw 10 on the ground below the feeder today, all scampering around looking for fallen seed. Nice!

Heard the song of a white throat sparrow this morning. Here in NW Indiana they just pass by on their way north but usually stick around for a few weeks to tease me with their song.
