Mike, Regarding your latter question: 004.23.07.wav does sound like an Upland Sandpiper "pwip-pwip-pwip" NFC call to me. I recall being in Killeen, TX in 2001 (late March to early April) and hearing (recording) many night migrant Upland Sandpiper NFCs one night (at the time, I didn't know what they were, but they sounded very familiar to me). There were several calling in a relatively short period of time, as if moving en masse.

I've been getting these at 3 of our stations here in Texas. I just chalked it up to resident birds but last night I got 2 over the house in the city. I have never heard them here. It's very possible, of course, that it's just a non-migrant. But you would think that I would get them regularly if so. But they are always just sporadic one-offs. And while we are at it.....is this an Upland Sandpiper? I get a lot of these and I just want to make sure I have it right. BTW, it was a return to 200+ calls last night here in Austin....just as woodcreeper.com site might suggest for last night. -Mike Farmer -- 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/nfc-l@cornell.edu/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/nfc-l@cornell.edu/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/ --
