A few days ago I had a Virginia Rail go over my house in Maine around 11:30 PM. Did the "kidick-kidick" call twice over a span of a minute or so moving south.

For the last 2-3 weeks I have had many decent nights of overflight. I have not listened for long, but on several nights I had many birds per minute. Some of the species included Yellow Warbler, Louisiana Waterthrush, Chestnut-sided Warbler, Hooded Warbler, American Redstart, Chipping Sparrows, Grasshopper Sparrow, Henslows Sparrow, Savannah Sparrow, Indigo Bunting, and Veery. Most numerous calls were from Yellow Warblers followed by Canada Warbler and then Chipping Sparrow. Good listening, Mike Michael Lanzone [email protected] -- NFC-L List Info: Welcome and Basics <http://www.northeastbirding.com/NFC_WELCOME> Rules and Information <http://www.northeastbirding.com/NFC_RULES> Subscribe, Configuration and Leave <http://www.northeastbirding.com/NFC-L_SubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm> Archives: The Mail Archive <http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/maillist.html> Surfbirds <http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NFC-L> BirdingOnThe.Net <http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/NFCL.html> Please submit your observations to eBird <http://ebird.org/content/ebird/> ! -- -- NFC-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NFC_WELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NFC_RULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NFC-L_SubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NFC-L 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/NFCL.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
