All, As this cold high pressure system overhead shifts offshore by Wednesday afternoon a strong southerly flow of air aloft will set up for Wednesday Night. Latest computer models are showing between 40 and 50 knots from the south-southwest between about 2000 and 5000 feet above ground level(925 to 850 mb) Wednesday night. Migration should be very heavy considering the cool north winds of the past couple days holding migrants back. Even tonight with the high pressure system overhead and light winds, migration will pick up and I would expect a fairly heavy flight as well.
Also, does anyone have the nocturnal flight call of the dickcissel that they would be willing to share? is it the same as the "flight" call ... http://bna.birds.cornell.edu/bna/species/703/galleries/audio/DICK5-1509a/media_popup_view?t=audio&fn=http://clomedia.ornith.cornell.edu/audio/1509A/1509A.mov from bna online?
