I think you misunderstand the purpose of the classification.
It's not to determine the date from the season or the season from the date.
It's to be able to say "Sparrows were late this year - the last three times that happened there was an insect problem, let's keep an eye out for that."
- TeMPOraL 7y agoI might have. But wrt. your example, my point is that "sparrows were late / early this year" is just something that's being said every year. Nature doesn't work off a clock; there's plenty of noise and oscillations in these phenomena. I'm not convinced such observations are useful.
