{}#yiv6096731939 Dave, In your recording I am able to hear mostly Swainson’s
Thrush and some Wood Thrush, along with a few others, perhaps Scarlet Tanager,
and a few “zeep” calls and maybe one or two “up seeps”. The audio is very hard
to hear so there could easily be more. I didn’t pick out any for-sure
Gray-cheeked Thrushes. I should also point out that eBird requests that counts
of nocturnal flight calls be entered under a specific protocol and in a very
specific way. The reason is so that these counts of nocturnal calls do not skew
the analysis of “stationary” and “traveling” counts that are used by day, when
detecting birds is done much differently. More information on how eBird
requests nocturnal counts be entered is here:
http://help.ebird.org/customer/en/portal/articles/1010492-entering-nocturnal-flight-call-counts
Things that should be corrected on your checklist include changing the
protocol from Stationary to Nocturnal Flight Call Count, changing the count of
“passerine sp.” to X and moving the count of 500 into the notes field (although
most of these are Swainson’s Thrush), and changing the answer to “are you
submitting a complete checklist” to No. Here in Pittsburgh the past two early
mornings have been outstanding listening, with hundreds Swainson’s Thrush and
many other calls just in the period between astronomical and civil twilights
each morning. Gray-cheeked Thrushes have started moving through here too. When
everything is analyzed I expect there will be in excess of 1000 calls of
Swainson’s Thrush alone, and perhaps double that number for total flight calls,
for each of the overnight periods Sept 9 and 10. Good listening! Geoff

In the Ebird post I can hear hardly anything even noise. Can you send the
recordings as whole directly to me? Yesterday night we were at mount Pleasant
and among at least 30 or forty calls we had one or two Gray-cheeked. At my home
pout of 100+ calls I did not get any Gray-cheeked. CheersMeena Meena

Subject: [nfc-l] NFC recording 7 minutes twilight this morning All, I used
my phone to record a nocturnal flight near twilight as the birds werecoming
down this morning. I know I had SWAINSON'S THRUSH and VEERY. I ampretty sure I
had a GRAY-CHEEKED THRUSH and also WOOD THRUSHand ROSE-BREASTED GROSBEAKS. I
also had some unidentified calls. So I amplified the audio, and uploaded to
ebird. To my dismay, the spectrogramshows nothing but you can still hear calls.
Can someone listen to thisand let me know what I had?? Its 7 minutes long. I
would appreciate anyone's take onthis... see
