Re: FW: [nfc-l] Migration Tonight (9/23-9/24)
Last night (9/23-24) was fairly active here on the east side of Cleveland, too. I had about 550 sparrow/warbler frequency calls. The night before was even more active, with about 900 calls in the upper frequencies. I'm not checking thrushes at the moment, because it is too labor-intensive to pick them out of the traffic noise, but I did notice /very/ dense thrush calls in the early morning of the 23rd.

FW: [nfc-l] Migration Tonight (9/23-9/24)
I had over 600 calls detected with the Tseep-X and Thrush-X detectors last night, which means probably close to 1000 calls on the recording if I go through it manually. Most thrushes were Swainson's and a few Gray-cheeked. Lots of warbler calls to go through still. At least one Black-billed Cuckoo. I was listening to the recording live in progress, and heard gulls about midnight. I've got way more calls to go through than I can easily do tonight :-) Rob FergusHunterdon County, NJhttp://birdchaser.blogspot.com From: di...@semi-local.com Subject: [nfc-l] Migration Tonight (9/23-9/24) Date: Tue, 24 Sep 2013 18:36:42 -0400 To: nf...@list.cornell.edu I recorded last night for only 30 minutes in Calvert County, Maryland, from 0610 to 0640 hrs. I had waves of call notes, sometimes 1 to 2 per second. I'm a total beginner at this (fascinating!) endeavor and haven't had time yet to study the file given my limited knowledge base. But I could ID that most were Swainson's Thrushes and seemed like quite a few Gray-cheeked Thrushes sometimes in groups ... and I'm working on the others... Unfortunately because of the wind direction, last night's recording was polluted with distant bridge road noise. I'm recording off a boat, which normally gives me excellent conditions: no noise pollution, no trees, and sound reflecting off the flat water. Tomorrow night we'll move to a more remote, quieter, location and I have high hopes for another push of migrants there! Diana Doyle - Last night there was a nice push of migrants southward, with the majority being a good mix of warblers, plus Rose-breasted Grosbeaks, Swainson's Thrushes and a number of Gray-cheeked Thrushes. The weather forecast looks good for another night of southbound migrants. If you are in the Eastern portion of the US and Canada, have a listen if you can. Good birding!

RE: [nfc-l] Migration Tonight (9/23-9/24)
I'm getting several calls a minute here in northern NJ right now...mostly warbler calls. Looking forward to seeing what comes through tonight.
