A quiet dawn chorus in the Mojave Desert National Preserve.  Recorded on March 30, 2018.  Vegetation was just starting to green up, following recent rains after a very dry winter.  I think the birds were just starting their breeding activity, as I saw none carrying nesting material or food to their young.  Recording features cactus wrens, phainopepla, Gambel's quail, song sparrows, black-throated sparrow, and maybe white-crowned sparrows.
