The woodcocks are coming through! In its peak time during this period, a few were spotted today in Prospect following yesterday's several in Greenwood Cemetery .
My coworker Mark like the rest of us was doing trash pickup ,typical Monday assignments following the weekends. As he walked through the 9/11 grove - the north slope or rise at the north end of Long Meadow unto east drive, flushed two American Woodcocks . One even did the famed walk. I have his video.Later , covering another area for littler ,he flushed another woodcock in the Sparrow bowl, between the Tennis and picnic houses for a third bird.
It's a guess how many more there are in prospect, hidden and unseen behind the fences in those woods . We will never know
Winter is not a season, it's a celebration.
