Re: [nfc-l] Possible Dickcissel NFC

Although anyone would be aghast if I were to claim a level of expertise near that of Ken or Bill, I’d include EAME in the clade exhibiting flatulence. In any event, it is a shame that those Dickcissels get crop-dusted on their wintering grounds. Removing myself from the room, Ethan Ethan C.

Re: [nfc-l] Flight Call Exemplar Database?

YES!! I agree. It would be great to add some sort of credit to whomever built the detector that located the call and possibly the parameters used. This could be placed in the remarks section of xeno-canto.Side note: Just returned from a distance sampling workshop with a passive acoustics component.

Greetings, Maybe some of you can help this rookie out with this mystery… frog? I know it isn't an NFC, but it may be something to definitively rule out if you see it. Thanks! Ethan -- NFC-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NFC_WELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NFC_RULES http

Re: [nfc-l] Night Migrating Raptors

I've recorded Bald Eagles in the middle of the night in Missouri. I know there has been good telemetry work done on them. Are they known to move at night?

Re: [nfc-l] Another empid (Alder?)

Re: [nfc-l] big night flight tonight

Is the Alfred listing station (not to be confused with "Alfred Station", a nearby hamlet), on Jericho Hill. This would give it significant elevation. Could elevation be a factor effecting 2? Just another thought. By the way. I don't usually post much and there may be others on this list who are

Re: [nfc-l] odd NEXRAD pattern

I haven't seen the radar for central Missouri. I'm honestly still trying to understand how to use it well. We are west of Columbia and East of Kansas City on the Missouri River. A large wave of migrants reached our banding station today (Daily Total: 90 birds, 28 species). Half of the birds (n=4

[nfc-l] detectors

Greetings All, I found a 2009 post from Mike Powers with a couple detectors attached (Sparrows and Thrushes). Altruism is alive and well. Are there any others available? FYI, we are are on our third night of deployment of SM2 at Grand Pass Conservation Area along the Missouri River in central M
