I'm behind on the analysis of several nights of data, but last night I did listen all night long as I zoned in and out of sleep (earbud headphones and rooftop-mounted microphone).
There was a heavy movement of hundreds of birds over Etna, NY last night with the predominant species being Veeries and Chestnut-sided Warblers. Other species heard include: Swainson's Thrush, Rose-breasted Grosbeak, Green Heron, Ovenbird, Black-throated Blue Warbler, American Redstart, Bobolink, Wood Thrush, Savannah Sparrow, Eastern Screech-Owl and Great Horned Owl, plus many other NFCs remaining unidentified without spectrographic evaluation or listening to them again more clearly. Good night listening! Sincerely, Chris T-H -- Christopher T.
