Hi Carol,
I think Randy W. figured out a few years ago, that most Golden-crowned
Sparrows leave the third week of April (4/22-4/24, if I remember right).
My garden numbers are already down from a few weeks ago. I expect that
by the end of April, there will be close to none left in county. Ebird
is a little unstable as I type right now, but you can check the data for
Santa Cruz county. I think it will show you that by early May, the
Golden-crowned Sparrows are gone.
My 2 cents,
Pete
