Figures 4 and 5 perhaps look most similar. Figure 4 shows chart for 9th Oct 2000 around which time several yank passerines turned up such as Yellow-billed Cuckoo. Figures 5 shows chart for 13th Oct 2001 when again several notable yanks turned up.Can't see what's happening on Sat/Sun as yet but presumably focus will be on yanks waders/ducks.EDIT: chart this Fri also looks similar to that in early Sept 2004 which Purple Martin and Red-eyed Vireo.</blockquote>
