Hi James
I am interested in photo. I flushed a Woodcock a week ago but could not find the nest. Always wanted to see what the nest looks like. Woodcock are extremely abundant up in Pictou Co. 
cheers
Ken

  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.
