The rest of the week however was very quiet. Nonetheless this week had the highest number of flight calls so far this autumn with a total 1,173. While the number of warblers is still 2 to 3 times the numbers of sparrows or thrushes, the two most common flight calls this week were not warblers. These were Savannah Sparrow with 187 flight calls and Swainson's Thrush with 139 calls recorded. The most common warbler was again the Common Yellowthroat with 115 night flight calls. No rare or unusual birds were detected this week. The summary for the week beginning the evening of August 31 and ending the morning of September 6 is as follows: Solitary Sandpiper - 1 Veery - 1 Swainson's Thrush - 139 Nashville/Tennessee Warbler - 6 Northern Parula - 36 Chestnut-sided Warbler - 4 Magnolia Warbler - 64 Cape May Warbler - 14 Black-throated Blue Warbler - 6 Yellow-rumped Warbler - 31 Black-throated Green Warbler - 43 Blackburnian Warbler - 15 Palm Warbler - 5 Bay-breasted Warbler - 27 Blackpoll/Yellow Warlber - 52 Black-and-White Warbler - 32 American Redstart - 39 Other unidentified warblers of the genus Setophaga - 57 Ovenbird - 47 Northern Waterthrush - 32 Mourning Warbler - 19 Common Yellowthroat - 115 Wilson's Warbler - 22 Canada Warbler -2 Other unidentified warblers - 66 Chipping Sparrow - 2 Savannah Sparrow - 187 Song Sparrow - 1 Lincoln's/Swamp Sparrow - 26 White-throated Sparrow - 28 Dark-eyed Junco - 5 Other unidentified sparrows - 16 Rose-breasted Grosbeak - 2 Other unidentified songbirds - 18 Other unidentified birds - 13 Total Night Flight Calls - 1,173 See also http://www.johnfkearney.com/nocturnal_monitoring/ for some graphic displays of this information ------=_NextPart_000_003F_01CD8D05.F114FD90 Content-Type: text/html; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <html xmlns:v=3D"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" = xmlns:o=3D"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" = xmlns:w=3D"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word" = xmlns:m=3D"http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2004/12/omml" = xmlns=3D"http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40"><head><meta = http-equiv=3DContent-Type content=3D"text/html; = charset=3Dus-ascii"><meta name=3DGenerator content=3D"Microsoft Word 14 = (filtered medium)"><style><!-- /* Font Definitions */ @font-face {font-family:Calibri; panose-1:2 15 5 2 2 2 4 3 2 4;} @font-face {font-family:"Comic Sans MS"; panose-1:3 15 7 2 3 3 2 2 2 4;} /* Style Definitions */ p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {margin:0cm; margin-bottom:.0001pt; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Comic Sans MS"; mso-fareast-language:EN-US;} a:link, span.MsoHyperlink {mso-style-priority:99; color:blue; text-decoration:underline;} a:visited, span.MsoHyperlinkFollowed {mso-style-priority:99; color:purple; text-decoration:underline;} span.EmailStyle17 {mso-style-type:personal-compose; font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"; color:windowtext;} .MsoChpDefault {mso-style-type:export-only; font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"; mso-fareast-language:EN-US;} @page WordSection1 {size:612.0pt 792.0pt; margin:72.0pt 72.0pt 72.0pt 72.0pt;} div.WordSection1 {page:WordSection1;} --></style><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <o:shapedefaults v:ext=3D"edit" spidmax=3D"1026" /> </xml><![endif]--><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <o:shapelayout v:ext=3D"edit"> <o:idmap v:ext=3D"edit" data=3D"1" /> </o:shapelayout></xml><![endif]--></head><body lang=3DEN-CA link=3Dblue = vlink=3Dpurple><div class=3DWordSection1><p class=3DMsoNormal><span = style=3D'font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'>There was = heavy migration during the Labour Day weekend, especially on Saturday = and Sunday nights when nearly 500 night flight calls were recorded each = night.
