There was nocturnal movement throughout the week with almost 200 more night
flight calls this week than the week before. In total, 872 flight calls were
recorded this week with the largest number on the night of August 14-15 when
326 night flight calls were recorded. Again most of the nocturnal flight was
of warblers (93%). The American Redstart was the most common of the
identifiable warblers composing 15% of all warblers. Last week this species
accounted for 29% of all warblers. Thus other species were more numerous
this week, for example, Northern Parula, Magnolia Warbler, Black-throated
Green Warbler, Ovenbird, Northern Waterthrush, and Canada Warbler. There
were some less common birds this week too, in particular what I believe to
be Indigo Bunting (1 night) and Vesper Sparrow (2 nights). The increase in
insect noise made identification of species even more difficult than normal
and thus there are probably more in the unidentifed categories.
The summary of night flight calls from the night of August 10 to the morning
of August 17 is as follows:
Least Sandpiper - 3
Veery - 4
Swainson's Thrush - 17
Tennessee Warbler- 3
Nashville Warbler - 15
Northern Parula - 30
Yellow Warbler/Blackpoll Warbler - 22
(These are hard to distinguish; I believe that most were Yellow Warblers)
Chestnut-sided Warbler - 13
Magnolia Warbler - 62
Cape May Warbler - 23
Black-throated Blue Warbler - 6
Yellow-rumped Warbler - 25
Black-throated Green Warbler - 39

Black-and-White Warbler - 26
American Redstart - 125
Other unidentified warblers of the genus Setophaga - 102
(Northern Parula to American Redstart above)
Ovenbird - 43
Northern Waterthrush - 40
Mourning Warbler - 3
Common Yellowthroat - 43
Wilson's Warbler - 4
