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.

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. 😊
