I listened last night from 2:15am-5:45 am, most of that time out on my patio with an earphone from my OldBird 21c mic in one ear. I recorded all night, and got over 150 thrush calls and 180 tseep-x detected calls with dozens of tseep calls heard. It's going to take me a while to wade through

I too was out last night until about 2 am in Ithaca. Very similar species composition to Chris, plus a Gray-cheeked Thrush, Wood Thrush, Scarlet Tanager and a couple other things (and minus Mourning Warbler). Braved the 45-degree temps in a sweatshirt, but totally worth it! Benjamin Van Doren

I'm not in crack shape right now, but I spent a few stops listing here in Madison, Wisconsin. We had a major flight last night. The bulk of the birds were Swainson's Thrushes, followed by Hermit Thrushes, with a few Grey-cheeks in there too. The rest of were not my expertise (that is, nothing

Another heads-up... Tonight looks very good for a night migration. Should see a good push of birds down from southern Canada into the US. How this plays out depends upon where listening stations are relative to the high pressure system moving across the Northeast. For example, regions west of
