Re: [nfc-l] NFCs Week of 9/3 through 9/9

2016-09-12 Thread Christopher T. Tessaglia-Hymes
Hey all,

I’m slowly resuming NFC listening after a very hectic last year. I got a 
microphone up last weekend, but I think it experienced some water intrusion 
following rain the other day, as many warbler calls were distorted and 
attenuated – lower frequency calls were slightly cleaner to hear and see on the 
scrolling spectrogram.

Last night, there was an astonishing movement of warblers, sparrows, thrushes, 
and grosbeaks. Very nice listening live, albeit poor quality. Predominant 
species was Swainson’s Thrush, followed by Rose-breasted Grosbeak, Veery, plus 
a smattering of Wood Thrushes, I don’t recall hearing any Gray-cheeked Thrushes 
yet. Heard a few Savannah Sparrows, American Redstarts, lots of Ovenbirds, and 
just a handful of Black-throated Blue Warblers; earlier in the night, a few 
flyover Green Herons. Several of the blurred zeeps sounded very short and 
almost Bay-breasted Warbler-like to my ears. Several possible Chestnut-sided 
Warblers as well, but again, those higher-frequency calls were quite muted due 
to some potential water damage to the microphone.

Hope to get the microphone inspected and repaired in time for the next wave.

Raven question: during data acquisition, can we enable custom-set live filters 
to filter out noise in specific frequency bands? Seems the current version only 
allows for application of filters on a batch of pre-existing data.

Thanks and good night listening!

Sincerely,
Chris T-H

I have not yet dared to classify all the calls but definitely there were lots 
of Ovenbirds, Magnolia, Bay-breasted, Savannah Sparrows, Black-throated green 
types, Chestnut-sideds, a few No. Parulas and a few Black-thorated blues. Very
