Woodcock Walk
March 24 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Meet at the parking area (directions below) at 7:00 pm. Bring a flashlight for use on the way out. Wear sturdy shoes for a short downhill walk.
American Woodcock courtship takes place at dusk. The males can be heard making a nasal “peent” call. A little shuffling dance can sometimes be seen. Then, they launch upwards in a spiraling flight into the darkness, circle a bit, and return to earth.
Led by Jim Van Gelder.
