Greeneville, Greene Co., TN

This evening at dusk, I found an American Woodcock in the field behind 
the Italian Village Restaurant in Greeneville.  (This site is located on 
North Rufe Taylor Road on the eastern outskirts of town, about 0.2 mile 
from Highway 11-E.)  I observed no evidence of display and doubt that I 
would have found the bird at all had I not flushed it by walking  near 
its ground perch.  This field has been a reliable spot for displaying 
American Woodcocks for at least the last five years, and I fully expect 
that display will commence soon, if it hasn't already.
