[Tweeters] Best source for local phenology?

[Tucker, Trileigh]

Hi Tweets,

I’m wondering if somewhere out there is an all-in-one guide to W Wash/Salish Sea area/Seattle bird phenology. I have Morse et al.’s Birds of the Puget Sound Region, Hunn’s Birding in Seattle and King County, and Fisher’s Birds of Seattle—all excellent guides for their own purposes, but none of which includes the kind of chronology I’m looking for.

The Burke Museum has a nicely done summary of first-egg dates for local species here<https://www.burkemuseum.org/sites/default/files/2019-07/BreedingPhenologyProject_sm.pdf>, and Seattle Audubon’s BirdWeb<http://www.birdweb.org/birdweb/birds> has tons of useful information, but it’d be great to have more detailed phenology data. Of course I can look up phenology online on a species-by-species basis, and there are some rich databases out there, but I’d love to get a single guide that shows all local species’ annual patterns for nest-building, egg-laying, fledging, migration, etc. I’m picturing something like a bar chart for each species with Jan-Dec along the top line, and lower lines for each behavior, but I’ll take whatever I can get. 😊

Does such a thing exist?

Thanks much and good birding to all,
Trileigh
