Join naturalists Connie O’Connor and Sheila Riley for a talk and walk about woodcocks beginning at 7:15 pm. Adults and children (12 years and up) will take a brisk walk to the fields across Tealtown Road to stand very still and wait for the action to begin. First you will hear them, then you will see their flight against the darkening sky. Woodcocks are a secretive game bird and the best part of the “mud season.” Expect to be here for about an hour and a half total to learn about these fascinating birds. Preregistration is required. Members $5; nonmembers $10 (includes daily admission).
