In one hour, 1015 to 1115 pm I counted 280 SWAINSON'S THRUSHES and 13 GRAY-CHEEKED THRUSHES by nocturnal calls. There were many many other weaker, zips, seeps chips etc that I don't know. There were a couple moments with up to 5 thrushes calling at once! Some were very low and of course many were very high. I probably sampled only the lower portion of the true flight. Good birding.
