Anyone else have data from last night/this morning? 2 Veery 6 Gray-cheeked Thrush 46 Swainson's Thrush <javascript:deleteObsWithIDNew('OBS272409077','Are you sure you want to delete these observations?\nOnce they are deleted they can never be restored.');> 11 Wood Thrush <javascript:deleteObsWithIDNew('OBS272409078','Are you sure you want to delete these observations?\nOnce they are deleted they can never be restored.');> 2 thrush sp. 6 warbler sp. 2 Chipping Sparrow 1 Swamp Sparrow On Fri, Sep 19, 2014 at 12:23 AM, Kenneth V.
