[nfc-l] ADMIN: NFC eList Update

[Christopher T. Tessaglia-Hymes]

Good morning!

As spring migration gets under way, I thought I would let you all know that the 
NFC-L eList also recently migrated – to a new Lyris eList server platform. As 
part of a pilot test, this new platform includes an increase in allowable total 
message size to around 5MB; this is a significant file size increase from the 
former limit of around 900KB. This should greatly improve our ability to share 
attached NFC-related files with each other and to the greater NFC community.

Please note that I also set the eList so that any reply to a message goes to 
the entire eList – if this becomes a problem, I may revert back to the former 
setting of reply to sender.

Please let me know if you encounter any issues with messages being sent to or 
received from this eList.

Thanks and good NFC listening!!

Sincerely,
Chris T-H

Re: [nfc-l] Strange call over sw. Pennsylvania, April 16

[Christopher T. Tessaglia-Hymes]

Hi Geoff,

To my ear, this sounds like a variant of the more typical “ke-eer” Virginia 
Rail NFC. I very briefly listened to some of my recorded Virginia Rail NFCs, 
and this is similar-enough. Though, I could be incorrect…does anyone have other 
considerations?

Thanks for sharing, Geoff!

Sincerely,
Chris T-H

Hope everyone is having a nice spring so far. I am interested in opinions on 
the attached calls that I captured over sw. Pennsylvania the morning of April 
16 (1:42am). It doesn’t quite fit anything I can think of myself. One thing 
that came to mind is a slightly higher, slightly less defined “kee-yarr” of a 
Common Tern. Another thought was King Rail, though it sounds too high pitched 
for that, and I can’t find an example of Virginia Rail giving a call quite like 
this. I could certainly be missing something else much more obvious, maybe a 
shorebird or some other gull/tern, or even an odd call of a local bird. That 
said, the call was captured twice, 53 seconds apart, with the second call 
obviously more distant than the first. I included both just to give a sense of 
the relative intensity of each call 53 seconds apart, though they are otherwise 
pretty much identical.

Thanks very much,
Geoff
