[EBB Sightings] Birds of Northern California

I plan on ordering the Birds of Northern California ( BoNC ).
But I am curious what the BoNC book shows for Blue Grosbeak arrival
dates in the bay area ?
Kindly respond.
Thanks

I believe this book is still in print and available from Golden Gate
Audubon Society for something like $7.
