Woodcock Walk at Flatwoods Park

Saturday, March 16th at 7pm

Join Patrick May of Sassafras Audubon Society for a special combined bird walk and American woodcock outing at Flatwoods Park on March 16th at 7:00PM. The goal of this program is to have everyone witness the courtship flight of the American Woodcock, an amazing spectacle early each year and a pre-sunset bird walk. Participants will gather at Flatwoods Park (9499 Flatwoods Rd.) west of Ellettsville at 7:00 PM to learn about the woodcocks and Flatwoods Park. We will then walk the concrete path before heading into the field for the woodcock show. After dark we will hope to hear the “peent” call and the spiraling flight that follows.

space is Limited to 20 people

All participants need to register by e-mailing Patrick at sas@sassafrasaudubon.org. attendees will need to sign a waiver at the park. it May be chilly and boots are advisable.
