Woodcock Walk
Webster

The American Woodcock spends the daylight hours hidden away in woodlands. By night, it comes out into open fields where males dance high in the sky, with “chippering, twittering, bubbling sounds,” according to renowned bird expert Kenn Kaufman. Its aim, of course, is to attract females. In between dances, it makes a sound that Kaufman describes as a “beeping call,” while other sources call it a “peent” sound.
Join Shirley Shaw and Carolyn Ragan at the Big Field at the corner of Vosburg and Drumm Roads in Webster, weather permitting.
Advanced registration is required so can we notify you if weather will cause a cancellation. To sign up, CLICK HERE. Dress warmly. Bring a folding chair and flashlight. A short walk will take place to the best display area, and participants may also choose to take a short walk to a pond to listen to the sounds of frogs before the woodcocks begin their display.
