that's interesting. one thing that I've noticed (or not noticed) is that as Veery, Hermit thrush, Swainson's come through Pennsylvania in migration (fall and spring), they don't seem to call at all on the ground during the day. Very occasionally I'll hear singing of Swainson's. I'm not sure I have ever heard Hermit thrush sing.
