Hi All,
Total night flight calls at Carleton, Yarmouth County, were down from the
previous week due to rainy and unsettled weather during the period of 17-20
September. There was a total of 828 calls, at a nightly rate of 118. Species
consisted 79% of warblers, 11% of thrushes, 9% of sparrows, and 1% of other
family types. The most common species of the week were Common Yellowthroat
with 181 calls, Magnolia Warbler (71), Northern Parula (54), Blackpoll
Warbler (47), Black-and-white Warbler (44), American Redstart (40),
Black-throated Green Warbler (39), and Swainson's Thrush (36). There was a
marked increase in Palm Warblers (22), and the first movement of Hermit
Thrushes was on 15 September. Cape May Warblers (2) were scarce while
Black-throated Blue Warblers continued at the same pace (21) as previously.
A further expected increase in Yellow-rumped Warblers did not yet
materialize. Rare birds for the week were Indigo Bunting and Gray-cheeked
Thrush (22 September at 0404 hrs). The Gray-cheeked Thrush has quite a
distinct flight call which you can hear by clicking on this link:
