Nocturnal migration has been fairly quiet since I started recording on August 1, though there has been decent diversity with a good showing of early season Cape May and Bay-breasted Warblers. Last night (August 17) produced a great dawn thrush flight with more than 100 thrush call notes in four short minutes, mostly Veery but with some early season Swainson’s Thrushes. This four minute interlude followed 9 hours of near total silence, broken by only 16 warbler call notes. Listen to the thrush flight here. https://ebird.org/checklist/S147490536
