Being mostly nocturnal, it's easy to draw the conclusion that heaviest woodcock migrations would occur around the full moon. I'm sure weather plays an important role, as does the shortening or lengthening of the days. Still, I've witnessed this correlation often enough over the years to mostly ignore what RGS researchers post on the internet. They also claim the ruffed grouse is essentially extinct in Indiana and got the hunting season suspended this year, yet I flushed two of them last week within a mile of each other.
