Request for assistance – song recordings of migrating Mourning Warblers

I am posting my annual opportunity to participate in a Citizens Science 
Project that involves recording migrating Mourning Warbler songs.I am 
trying to determine the nature of migratory pathways taken by different 
song populations of Mourning Warbler males during their spring 
migration.I am continuing to collect your recordings and plot them on a 
map of North America to determine if and where birds with different song 
types (regiolects) separate from each other during spring migration.The 
most current map of songs of migrants is at the web site below.

All you need is a Smartphone and a singing Mourning Warbler.You can send 
the recordings to my e-mail address (jpitocch AT anselm.edu).The web 
page link below describes the project and how to make recordings on your 
Smartphone in more detail.

This year is the 10^th and final year of data collection.I very much 
appreciate your past and present contributions to this Citizens Science 
Project.

I am once again writing to request your help and record Mourning Warbler 
songs from spring migrants.It is year 8 of my research using birdsong to 
study migratory connectivity of Mourning Warbler song populations.Here 
is a link to the latest map with previous years’ results based on 
recordings from over 150 birders.

https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?hl=en=1voXjBhvHZ0nwAv93_OBC_vCPuxQ=38.892516009880424%2C-85.09712735=5
 


There is also a link to a spring 2017 National Audubon Society story on 
this research.

Audubon Society reporting

http://www.audubon.org/magazine/spring-2017/this-guy-mapping-how-warblers-migrate-just

These preliminary results continue to suggest moderate to low 
connectivity during migration with Western breeders separating from the 
rest of the other song populations.Eastern, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland 
song populations travel together along the Appalachian Mountains at 
least into Maine with some birds heading to the Atlantic Coast beginning 
in Maryland, Delaware and New Jersey.

All you need is a smartphone with a voice recording app and some 
luck.Videos with recordings are also helpful.The web page link below 
describes the project and how to make recordings on your Smartphone in

I am once again writing to request your help and record Mourning Warbler 
songs from spring migrants.It is year 7 of my research using birdsong to 
study migratory connectivity of Mourning Warbler song populations.Here 
is a link to the latest map with previous years’ results based on 
recordings from over 130 birders.

https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?hl=en=1voXjBhvHZ0nwAv93_OBC_vCPuxQ=38.892516009880424%2C-85.09712735=5
 


Contributions are reinforcing preliminary results.

1) Western song populations are separating out from the rest of the pack 
and migrating throughout the mid-western states directly to the Prairie 
Provinces.

2) Eastern, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland song populations are migrating 
together along the Appalachian Mountains.

3) Nova Scotia and Newfoundland song populations are beginning to hug 
the Atlantic coast in New Jersey and New York.However, they can still be 
found in or near the mountains as far north as Massachusetts and New 
Hampshire.

The overall results suggest moderate to low connectivity during 
migration with Western breeders separating from the rest of the other 
song populations.

I am especially interested this year in recordings from Texas, more 
mid-western states, eastern Colorado and the New England coast.All you 
need is a smartphone with a voice recording app and some luck.Videos
