Killaly Meadows

Searching for Woodcocks in the Killaly Meadows ESA - April 26, 2017

Walked along the north branch of the Thames River.  I did not see the Woodcock (FOY) courtship display but heard them. It was dusk and getting dark at the time.  I love the sound of Woodcocks...an explosive nasal beent.
