Hi All,
It was a busy week for nocturnal migration at Carleton, Yarmouth County.
There was a total of 1,383 calls at a rate of 198 calls per night. There was
an estimated minimum of 1,117 birds. Warbler composition fell to 79% of
calls due to the influx of Swainson's Thrushes and Veeries. The most common
birds for the week were Common Yellowthroat (190), American Redstart (160),
Magnolia Warbler (152), Northern Parula (125), Black-and-White Warbler
(116), Swainson's Thrush (88), and Black-throated Green Warbler (64). There
was a more than average flight of Wilson's Warbler, with 37 flight calls
recorded. The peak for the week and for the autumn season thus far was the
night of 2-3 September when 469 calls were recorded. Rare birds for the week
included 4 Prairie Warblers, 2 Pine Warblers and 1 Indigo Bunting. A sparrow
recorded at 10:22 pm on 6 September was a possible Seaside Sparrow. A
discussion of this flight call can be found on at my website at
http://www.johnfkearney.com/SESP.html. Additional graphics of the autumn
nocturnal migration at Carleton can be seen at:
