Chase,
I was out surveying this morning and it appears that the October 5 "peak" of
White-throated Sparrows and Hermit Thrushes arrived here in southeastern
Michigan last night, as I had hundreds of sparrows and dozens of thrushes in
the one park I was covering. We're in for two days of rain...

Subject: [nfc-l] Large foggy flight over Port Monmouth, NJ
A thick fog has rolled in at 3:18 am near port Monmouth on the Raritan
bay. There are at least 3 flight calls a second. I've never heard so
much activity at night. Birds are coming in waves. Thrushes seem to be
flying higher in altitude compared to the other calls, they are also,
for the most part staying as east as possible. This was recorded about
500 feet from the bay. Recorded using Fire field recorder app on
iPhone. Can anyone ID any of these calls?
