Re: [cayugabirds-l] Woodcock Peenting

2018-02-26 Thread psaracin
I read in "Bulls Birds of New York State (1998 edition) that 
woodcock".among our earliest breeders, with males reported in display as 
early as the last week in January and, commonly, by the last week of 
February."(pg. 268) That being said, these reports could possibly be from other 
(coastal?/southern?) N.Y. State.

Wow! The 31 year norm here, just about 2 miles and a bit higher than you, is 
3/18 and the earliest was 3/8. Congrats Ken.

[cayugabirds-l] Woodcock Peenting

2018-02-25 Thread Ken Haas
Yesterday, Dave Nutter was riding with me as we participated in Suan’s CBC 
field trip around the lake. Great trip, by the way many thanks to Suan and 
others. Dave suggested that I start listening for woodcock by the field next to 
where I live - just West of Mecklenberg on Rt. 79. So, 6:25PM this evening, I 
walked down the road to the field and PRESTO! There he was and I could hear him 
peenting clearly. Thanks Dave. Looks like Spring is trying to poke through 
Winter’s shroud.
