My immediate reaction was that spring started on the 1st of September in Oz. But, I decided to check what the official dates are.

Apparently, the northern hemisphere prefers to start the seasons on solar events (equinox or solstice) but the southern hemisphere starts it at the beginning of the month containing that solar event.

This "Useless Fact" brought to you by Wikipedia and the desire not to do any real work.
