I was in Vt this past weekend. Saturday and Sunday.
Hunted all day Saturday with 6 woodcock points and 24 grouse Sunday hunted from 8 to 3:00 with 1 woodcock and 10 grouse. It seems the woodcock have pretty much moved on from northern Vt |

John, Land features, especially those that are evident to the birds in flight at night (turn in a creek, etc.) and those areas that meet the birds needs will end up with "flights," at least in my part of the world. It's like finding truckers at a truck stop.

Dean today in Maine we had 3 grouse flushes and 9 woodcock. 3 immature and 1 mature woodcock. 3 males and 1 unknown. I will know for sure next year when the fish and wildlife sends the results from the wings we send in. We have participated for 30 years and the information is very interesting. The immature males seem to be the bulk of early migrants, then young females and adult males and last adult females. If any one wishes to they can google ''tell age and sex of american woodcock'' and it is very simple. The cold coming the end of the week will probably bring it to an end. I have liked this discussion and learned from it.

Unfortunately the only cutting and pasting I know how to do is with scissors and the paste like glue we used as kids. I keep trying, but a computer is just foreign to me. You should see me with my garmin dog collar system. I took that in yesterday and asked him to update for me. I can type 100 words per minute, and can barely turn on a computer |

I'm still jumping woodcock in the corn fields in Northern Indiana. I've seen them the last couple of days. I'm sure they are flight birds, as it isn't a place you would expect to find woodcock.
