Woodcock Search

Trip leaders: Mary Lou Clark Date of trip: March 1, 2024
Location: Hipsely Mill Road Number attending: 40
Details: We did hear and see a woodcock which landed. They were flying, a bit, over our heads. But, only one landed and it was down the path facing us and disappeared into the underbrush never to reappear. We waited and waited but no picture opportunities and no woodcock walking and vocalizing near us. Also, none on the path going back to the parking lot.
