Lauren Niemann and I had a great amount of woodcock activity despite
the cold north wind and intermittent drizzle this evening. This was
the same spot where Rob Lane led an unsuccessful trip under much more
favorable conditions last night (south end of Beckley Creek Park). We
waited in the parking lot until a bird had peented a couple of times,
then walked over to the field- perhaps this was the difference?
The action began at 6:50 or so. We estimated 7-10 birds, calling from
all ends of the field (and in the adjoining field). We saw two flight
displays and heard several more after it got too dark to see.
Here is a link to the map of the area- park in the lot on the
left-hand side of the map (south), and the field is across the road
(to the east):
