Comments: cc: paulydia@erols.com Up to 10 American Woodcock were displaying this evening 1/10 mile north of the intersection of Hughes Road and River Road (Rt. 190), just north of Hughes Hollow, Montgomery County MD. The timberdoodles were displaying on both sides of Hughes Road. They seemed to peak about 6:40 pm. Very nice to hear and see on a warm evening. The fields are very wet and most of the birds were staying near the top of the hill where the fields are a little bit drier. One Eastern Screech-Owl was calling in the yard, very close to the house when I returned home at 7:15 or so. ======================================================================= To leave the MDOsprey list, send e-mail to listserv@home.ease.lsoft.com with the following message in line 1: signoff mdosprey ======================================================================= =========================================================================
