SUMMARY:Litchfield Hills Audubon Annual Woodcock Walk - Boyd Woods Sanctuary
DESCRIPTION:Annual Woodcock Walk at Boyd Woods Sanctuary\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nApril 18\, 2026\nSaturday\, 7:00 p.m.\n\n \n\n\n\n\nOur walk will begin with a check of Margery’s Bird Pond\, where the wood frogs should be out and about (and very noisy!).Next\, we’ll head to the Monarch Meadow to await “the dance of the woodcock.” Year after year\, the woodcocks (sometimes as many as seven or eight) have performed their mating ritual overhead and are easily viewed from this vantage point. \n \nAlso\, close by\, we’re likely to hear our resident Barred Owls hooting back and forth. If there’s enough interest\, we can walk through the nearby conifers with the hope of seeing them.\n \nSanctuary managers Rich and Debbie Martin will guide you on this walk. Bring a flashlight. Wear boots\, as trails are soggy in spring. Dress warmly. No dogs allowed!\n \nMeet at the Boyd Woods Sanctuary parking lot on Route 254 in Litchfield.\n \n\nFor additional information\, contact Debbie Martin at barnowl524@hotmail.com or 860-819-7462
