Good evening! On this slow evening in the Northeast, I am getting caught up on some night recording data from past nights. Members on the NFC-L eList community may be most interested in unusual or uncommon species, or perhaps after interesting trends of more commons species, or are simply here to soak up more knowledge of this new-found aspect of ornithology.
I thought I'd take a moment to post a more common sound of night migration on good nights in August through early September. This Veery was recorded calling at 12:23pm, on 22 August 2012. I cleaned up some of the cricket chirps to make for a slightly cleaner recording. This was a surprisingly low flying and loud migrant for the time of night, perhaps due to a low cloud ceiling. I'll see what I can do about posting some more good examples of other known species; I encourage others to try and follow suit, because there are several beginning or out-of-your-region night flight call listeners on this eList. Thanks and good night listening! Sincerely, Chris T-H -- Christopher T.
