This is a seasonal phrase for this time of year, “Wagtails sing their first songs.” As I live quite near Tadasu no Mori Forest, I am certain that I have actually seen the bird and heard its singing. However, to my regret, I can’t identify the variety of the bird the phrase mentions.

今ぐらいの時期の七十二候の名称です。「セキレイが鳴き始める」糺の森のすぐ近くに住んでいますので、多分この鳥の姿を見たこともあれば、その声を聞いたこともあるのでしょうけれど、今すぐに、あの鳥だわ・・・とはわかりません。
