[nfc-l] First night if 2013

[birdchaser]

Last night I started recording for the season.  Over 100 detections, mostly 
sparrows.  Great to be back in the saddle!

At last night's very well attended Cayuga Bird Club meeting at the Cornell Lab 
of Ornithology, David Nicosia gave an overview of birds and weather. There was 
a question about quantifying how many migrants are moving in relation to radar. 
I mentioned some Sid Gauthreaux and Carroll Belser's work at Clemson to develop 
a calibration curve for interpreting radar reflectivity in comparison with 
Lowery's classic moonwatching work. I also promised some additional information 
for those interested. Andrew Farnsworth has posted a primer on understanding 
radar and birds that discusses this and other aspects of radar and birds.
