Hi All, Heavy rains and strong winds on 5 out of 7 nights, combined with the lateness of the season, resulted in only a few night flight calls: 26. The most common calls were those of the Hermit Thrush and American Woodcock (5 each). There were nonetheless a good variety of "interesting" calls. The first American Tree Sparrow was recorded on October 21st at 7:10 am. A call that was an very good fit with Grasshopper Sparrow, both in sound and spectrogram, was recorded on October 20th at 11:43 pm. A late Northern Parula was recorded on the same night (9:34 pm). As noted last week, the call of this warbler is similar to Pine Warbler and Yellow-throated Warbler but this call best fit the profile for Northern Parula. Finally an Indigo Bunting was recorded at 10:40 pm on October 23rd. A complete list follows. John Species/ Calls American Woodcock 5 Hermit Thrush 5 Savannah Sparrow 4 Song Sparrow 3 Chipping Sparrow 2 Unidentified thrush 1 Indigo Bunting 1 Northern Parula 1 White-throated Sparrow 1 Nelson's Sparrow 1 American Tree Sparrow 1 Grasshopper Sparrow 1 Total 26
