I listened through my OldBird 21c mic last night from 10pm-12:30am, and just finished running the Thrush-X and Tseep-X detectors on the recording from 10pm--3:30am (at which point for some reason my recorder shut off). 598 Thrush-X detections and 891 Tseep-X detections. I will process the file visually in RavenPro later, but some highlights... Lesser Yellowlegs (new yard bird)Black-crowned Night Heron (new year bird)Sora (new yard bird, new year bird, local rarity on ground--though probably had one last week and haven't processed the recording yet)BobolinkBlack-billed Cuckoo--at least 5 detected while I was listeningYellow-billed Cuckoo--2, including one I heard at 2:30am through an open window as I was getting in bedGray-cheeked Thrush--at least 8, will check a couple to see if they are actually high enough to be Bicknell's Lots of yellowthroats, redstarts, and yellow/blackpoll type calls. It's been a tough migration, with lots of bad nights, but last night was one of the better nights! Rob Fergus Hunterdon County, NJhttp://birdchaser.blogspot.com --
