[nysbirds-l] Woodcocks at Jamaica Bay

2012-03-11 Thread Robert Bate

There were at least 6 American Woodcocks displaying, "peenting" and flying
around in the shrub and grassy area just south of the visitor's center
parking lot at Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge in Queens County.  They first
appeared at 7:15 as the light was fading but could be seen peenting on the
ground and clearly silhouetted against the sky as they flew around the area.
