Lot's of Spotted Sandpiper calls in Etna, as well. Though, the proximity of my microphone to Fall Creek makes for discerning possible local birds from migrants rather difficult.

Predominant species was Swainson's Thrush. Here's a rough break down: 4 Yellow-billed Cuckoos 2 Black-billed Cuckoos 2 Indigo Buntings 1 Alder Flycatcher 15+ Gray-cheeked Thrushes (estimated) 65-75+ Swainson's Thrushes (estimated) Also, I stopped in at the Hawthorn Orchard this morning for about 45 minutes. Extremely quiet. Though, I was surprised to hear two distinctly different Wood Thrushes singing: one down in the North ravine, where I've been periodically hearing one; a second one was singing up in the Hawthorn Orchard in the Northeast corner. Both were counter-singing. Of note, House Wrens seem distinctly absent compared to pass years at the Hawthorn Orchard. Good birding! Sincerely, Chris T-H -- Christopher T.
