Harry,
I'm very interested that you mention Spotted Flycatcher as a bird you
heard migrating at night. I wasn't aware of any Old World flycatchers
(or chats for that matter) having migration flight calls. If they do,
then I should have a good chance of learning the flight call for Pied
Flycatcher, as I now live in Portugal, where Pied Flies from all over
the species' range congregate in autumn, perhaps to benefit from our
near-constant northerly winds as they fly on into Africa.

Dear all,
quite interesting to read about flights of rare vargrant such
as swainson's thurshes or yellow warblers. Where I do some
monitoring I have had rather quiet nights in the last week. Some
Black-bellied Plovers (Plusqu), Ringed Plovers (Chahia), Tree
pipits (Antpra), Spotted flycatchers (Musstr) and the very first
migrating Red-wing (Turili) of the season, and also a number of
unid's calls. As you may have guessed already, I am located in
Europe a bit North of UK.
Now a short question relating to some previous mails. In addition
to Raven pro (which is sort of expensive), syrinx (which I cannot
get to work) and Tseep-x are there any freeware programs which
could be useful for searching calls from large files?
