Re: [nfc-l] Hermit Thrush flight calls on ground
Seems like all the North American *Catharus* do this, no? I'm pretty sure I've heard Veery doing flight calls on the ground as well. An interesting question, then, would be whether Central and S.

Re: [nfc-l] Long-eared Owl?
Ben- Intriguing. I don't know if you'll ever get a definitive answer, of course, but despite a lot of experience with avians, I'm not convinced that's not a mammal. I don't think it's a cat, but a deer is an intriguing possibility. I recorded a deer in Santa Rosa NP in Costa Rica getting chomped by a coyote, and when that thing hollered, it sounded a lot like a goat, a very bleating sound. This is reminiscent of that, similar goat-like quality? I haven't heard many other deer vocalize, but this makes me think of that. Tough call. I don't have enough experience with long-eared owl to compare, though.

Re: [nfc-l] Austin, Tx - Hourly count - Through May 7, 2012
Hey all- As someone who works in behavioral acoustics, I'd really appreciate hearing some speculation about why these birds are calling. What is the call function? Because this will affect everything about how we interpret these graphs. For example, Mike, why do you think that calling should differ with season? My assumptions would be that the function of any one type of flight call for any one species is the same across contexts. What sort of factors drive these seasonal differences? Are you talking about physical factors that would affect apparent call distributions? And David, what's the basis for the rationale that birds don't need to communicate on takeoff compared with later? (Answers might be simple but I think it would be useful to be explicit here.) Your explanation in general would seem to me to generate a strong bimodal distribution, one that I'm not seeing in the graph provided. To me that looks like a strong peak at 2am. The difference between 12am and 1am probably wouldn't significant (??). So why a peak at 2am, given the function of these calls?

Re: [nfc-l] Northeast US: Night Migration Tonight
I'm not in crack shape right now, but I spent a few stops listing here in Madison, Wisconsin. We had a major flight last night. The bulk of the birds were Swainson's Thrushes, followed by Hermit Thrushes, with a few Grey-cheeks in there too. The rest of were not my expertise (that is, nothing exceptionally distinctive other than a few Indigo Buntings - no herons, cuckoos, rails, etc). I stopped several times over an hour period and had probably 8-10 birds per minute each stop. This was between 1200 and 0100 this morning. I just wish I hadn't had to go to bed!

[nfc-l] Western radar?
I know I've asked this of various folks before, and probably gotten reasonable if short answers, but I'm blanking out on the reasons. Can anyone shed light on why radar doesn't really work for detecting night flights in the intermountain West and the West Coast, esp. south? Is it literally that the birds are more spread out or fewer (seems very unlikely to me) or that all those boreal migrants trend east and clump up (seems possible, but shouldn't eliminate all flights) or that something about the topography/geography leads to differences in the effectiveness of radar? I am currently in the Los Angeles Basin, and I realize I'll probably not hear flights like I have out east, just because of migration routes, but I'm still curious about the radar question here. Are there any published or posted resources on this?

[nfc-l] Radar birds in the west!
Hey all- I should probably go outside and listen... Anyway, I've asked about this before, whether one can ever see birds on radar in the west. It looks like a lot of birds are hitting the Gulf tonight, and heading north toward the eastern Great Lakes, but you can also see pulses as night falls in Arizona, and on radar in Yuma and the central part of the Central Valley in California. (Also possibly along the Front Range in CO?) Can anyone with more experience confirm this?
