Looks like some big migration over the northeast last night, until about 4am when the thunderstorms shut it down. The largest influx into New Jersey appears to have been in the Southwest part of the state, then progressively north up the Delaware river valley. I think you’ll see a replacement of birds (old ones with new) along the bay shore, and most migrant traps today, but I wonder what places like Washington’s Crossing, or even some parks in Philly are looking like this morning. These areas seem to have the best chance for a fallout given the conditions last night…Nikolas, Sandy, are you reading this??

There are a lot of White-Throated Sparrows around here (southern Ontario) right now. Also many Dark-Eyed Juncos and Brown Thrashers.
Field Sparrows have started to establish their territories and There are quite a few RC kinglets around.
Yellow Bellied Sapsuckers have mostly left, although one couple is still hanging around.
