Hi folks,

It appears the AMERICAN WOODCOCK nesting in our back lot (between Hall's
Harbour and Centreville, NS) successfully fledged her young.
She had a final clutch of 4 eggs as of May 9th.
Today was Day 21 of incubation.
When I checked her this afternoon the nest site was undisturbed and 3
relatively intact egg shells were present near the nest...no detectable sign
of a predation event.
Looks like she has helped the Maritimes population along a bit!

We have some pictures of her incubating (just before clutch count) and of
the nest with eggs (taken during the clutch count) if anyone is
interested...pop me an email.

James.
