Maine Master Naturalist and woodcock enthusiast Paul Dest leads this walk in search of the famed timberdoodle. Paul is well-versed in the woodcock’s life history, conservation status, and management, and is an engaging presenter. In early spring, just before dawn or just after sunset, landscapes of field and young forest come alive with the unique sounds of the American woodcock. This migratory bird is a sure sign of spring, but is not so obvious as the robin or the red-winged blackbird. We’ll walk about a mile, including one small hill. $10/$8. Registration required at [email protected] or (207) 646-1555 x116. Learn more at wellsreserve.org/event/83295/woodcock-watch
