Is there a projected sub adult arrival map? If so, around when will the subs arrive in Delaware?

2016- 33 pairs at Raleigh site, 1 pair at home site.
2017- 34 pairs at Raleigh site, 3 pairs + extra SYs at home site
2018- 33 pairs at Raleigh site, 5 pairs + extra SYs at home site
2019 - 32 pairs at Raleigh site, 7 pairs at home site, 2 pairs at new Holly Springs park site

Looking back at the scout reports for DE for the last few years, it looks like Mid-April to Mid-May is the main timeframe for SY arrival there. A lot of folks are reporting that migration is running late, so hopefully they will show up soon. We're still waiting here in NC as well. A few have shown up in some places but not many.

Only 2 SY have been reported on the scout report for Tennessee. Looks like they should be coming soon. I didn't see one until May 15th last year. Was hoping to see them earlier this year.
