Woodcock Night Walk

REGISTER HERE

During a few short weeks in spring, these normally elusive birds put on a magical show, performing nocturnal courtship flight displays known as a sky dance. Join us to hear the myths, habits, and unique features of this bird that make it truly one of a kind. As the sun sets, we’ll head out for a twilight stroll down the nature trails. If the conditions are right, we’ll have front row seats as these aerial dancers put on a show for us in the sky above.

What to Expect:
This program is entirely outdoors. Most of this one-hour program time will be spent walking. Expect to walk about 1 mile. We will conclude at the park office. The planned path is dirt and gravel, frequently rolling or slightly hilly, includes some bridges and boardwalks and is suitable for wheelchairs and strollers. No prior experience is necessary. For maximum enjoyment, some of our one-hour program time will require all participants to patiently remain quiet and listen closely.

Time: 7:30 p.m. – 8:30 p.m.
Cost: $5 per adult
