[nfc-l] How late into the fall do New York/Mid-Atlantic nfc'ers record/listen?

2011-11-12 Thread Andrew Albright
I've still been recording 6-8 hours a night and then listening* about
1-2 hours every day.   It's down to about 3-6 calls per hour.  The
first part of November has been warm here, so that might have slowed
things down some.

How long into fall migration do people record/listen?  I don't suppose
anyone has any good graph showing the distribution of total calls per
min/hour spread out from August - November that's published?

Sincerely,
Andrew


*I record at night and then during the day at work, I listen to the
recordings I made.

[nfc-l] Austin, Texas - excel macro

2011-11-12 Thread Mike Farmer
I have an excel macro that counts the number of calls that are within one 
minute of each other.  Which I can send to those who want it.

There are three arguments to the function, folder name, number of seconds, file 
name filter of format -mm-dd.

This macro works with files of this format”2011-10-20 0945 
Tseep_003.18.06_00.wav”  Or really with any file with the date on the front and 
with OLDBIRDS’s  TSEEP and THRUSH format of the time offet on the back.   You 
can, of course, freely modify it to suit your needs.

With this and the previous spreadsheet that I discussed, I now have a 
semi-automated night call station.all that remains, of course, is the 
classifying of the actual sonograms as to species.   Someday..someday.
