[Bristol-Birds] Where are the waves?

As a former New Yorker (less than a year ago), used to spring flights of
warblers, vireos and other songbirds, I am a little mystified by the lack of
waves
here. I am adding a bird or two every day but I have seen no waves at all.
Today I had one Magnolia Warbler and a Chestnut- sided Warbler (both probably
new today), several Red-eyed Vireos (here for several days and seemingly
territorial), 2 Yellow-Billed Cuckoos (one up from yesterday), 3 male Indigo
Buntings (one up from last week), one Chuck-Will's Widow (same place and time
as
yesterday), Wood Thrushes (unknown number.....probably 4 or 5), 3 Ruby-throated
Hummingbirds (up one male from the past week) and various other single birds
for one day (grosbeak, tanager, 3 kinds of warblers, flycatchers, etc). The
change has been in dribs and drabs. Is this typical in NE TN? Is it more
wave-like in the mountains? John Moyle Glen Alpine Road Kingsport Sullivan
