well for any other species, so I don’t think it is two birds calling coincidentally. The lower track fits well for SWTH. Bill From: Meena Madhav Haribal<mailto:m...@cornell.edu> Sent: Monday, August 13, 2018 5:12 PM To: NFC-L<mailto:nfc-l@mm.list.cornell.edu> Subject: [nfc-l] NFC yes

Hi Dave, In the Ebird post I can hear hardly anything even noise. Can you send the recordings as whole directly to me? Yesterday night we were at mount Pleasant and among at least 30 or forty calls we had one or two Gray-cheeked. At my home pout of 100+ calls I did not get any Gray-cheeked.

Hi all, I recorded thrush calls over a few night but on 26-27 night I had lots of calls. The detector detected over 1150 calls of which 84 were Grey-cheeked thrushes. I found the GCTHs were came in late early morning hours compared to Swainson's. This is the most I have recorded for this

Hi Shai and all, Our ears are also detectors and they can detect sounds they are familiar and ignore unknown sounds or at least our brains do not analyze. Occasionally we think we heard something else. Even if we hear the sounds in real time and if we don't know the sound then there is no way

Hi Jerald and all, I did have quite a lot of calls this past week. Something like 800+. I had started recording thrushes, quite a few Swainsons and at least two Grey cheeked thrush and some veerys etc. Among warblers of note were a few Wilson's warblers. I don't have data in front of me. Sept

I too think the cloud ceiling played an important role in yesterday's migrants. I could see as the cloud cover became heavier, I heard more calls that sounded to be coming from the closer birds. Yesterday night was one of my best NFC listening nights. Meena From:

A possibility that it was a tern. but did not sound like Caspian Tern may be other terns. The call was not as raspy as Caspians, but who know they may have something different too. I will also check out Willet as suggested by Bill later in the evening sometimes. Meena. > Meena,Could it have
