7:30 PM WOODCOCK WATCH – Is this just another “snipe hunt”?  No.  What is an American Woodcock and why would I want to watch one?  Well…this bird has one of the most elaborate courtship rituals of many of Ohio’s avian friends and one of the most intriguing to observe.  Bring along a pair of binoculars and meet the naturalist on the Expedition Trail located behind the naturalist office to find out.  (Unfortunately, this bird is weather-dependent so keep your fingers crossed for clear skies.)
