I spent the afternoon and evening at Bells Bend yesterday, and the American Woodcock arestill in full-on display mode. I know this is common knowledge, but I advise anyone who hasnever witnessed this phenomenon to make a visit to the Park soon. The easiest place to view/listen is the first "crossroads" just down the hill from the Nature Center. I had 8-10 birds in this vicinity right around dusk for about 45 minutes. It was nice seeing them fly by the rising full moon, and even nicer to finally get a decentphoto of a male mid-peent. Good birding, Ed SchneiderNashville
