Hello all, I've been lurking this list for several years, but finally was able to get a microphone up and running. I live just north of Seattle, adjacent to a major river on a small hill and get significant amounts of daytime migrants, so I'm curious to see what I will turn up at night. It's already been quite interesting to see how many owls are singing, but most of my NFC's I've determined to be either SAVS or WCSP.
I did have one ID question I wanted to put out there. I recorded a monotone "croak" widely spaced on two occasions thus far. I *think* it's an American Bittern, but I'd like some outside advice. It's filed under "bird sp." in this checklist: https://ebird.org/view/checklist/S44950543 and "American Bittern" in this one: https://ebird.org/view/checklist/S45164174 Josh Adams Snohomish, WA -- 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 Birding.ABA.Org � http://birding.aba.org/maillist/NFC Please submit your observations to eBird! ��http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
