Nice Chestnut-sided Warbler and Swainson's Thrush just now, too! Sincerely, Chris

This is probably the biggest night for Green Herons this migration season. Decent amount of targets on RADAR reflectivity as of 10:20pm: http://radar.weather.gov/radar.php?rid=BGM&product=NCR&overlay=11101111&loop=yes Sincerely, Chris T-H On Sep 5, 2013, at 9:44 PM, Judith Thurber <jathur...@yahoo.com<mailto:jathur...@yahoo.com>> wrote: Heard 3 Green Herons flying at 8:30-ish high above the Seneca River-- getting quite dark.

Just a heads-up that there may be a notable movement of birds southward from Canada and other areas to the North of us. If anyone wants to try for it, there could be a good thrush descent between about 5:40am and 6:00am, with the bulk occurring around 5:50-5:55am. As the thrushes descend from migration into nearby forests, their calling rates pick up significantly for a brief period of time (5-10+ minutes). I'm already hearing (recording) birds over Etna, NY. I've heard MANY Green Herons (kyowp! calls), a Bay-breasted Warbler (ID by spectrogram), and a nice classic Veery. If there is a good descent, I would expect there to be some cleanup of Veeries and Wood Thrushes (departing our region), but with the bulk of the calls being those of Swainson's Thrushes (which sound like spring peepers in the sky). The scattered descent from this morning held a single Gray-cheeked Thrush among the Swainson's Thrushes and Veeries. Good luck and good birding! Sincerely, Chris T-H -- Christopher T.
