P.s. Re: Yellow Warblers zeeping everywhere. Same here (Boulder County, Colorado), but rarely at night. I don't think I'm just missing them, since I'm perfectly able to hear (and record) them by day. They just don't seem to call at night; maybe they just don't move at night, either, out West. Probably just one of those east-vs.-west things, eh?
