Join us for an evening walk to witness one of the most remarkable signs of spring, the display of the American Woodcock. The walk will end by (hopefully!) watching the remarkable courtship dance and song of this secretive bird.
There are four Woodcock Walks that you can attend, all at Crossways Preserve. The program will be approximately 1 hour long. Sign up for the walk you would like to join through the registration link.
