American Woodcock
Bird Notes
Two Woodcocks started displaying last night near my house in Guilford. I hope they stick around. There was a Song Sparrow under the feeders this morning.

We heard our first Woodcocks this evening, at least 3 of same on Bonnyvale Rd.

Heard a Woodcock peenting across the road from us on Black Mountain Rd at 6:30 tonight.

I went in search of the barnacle goose and greater white-fronted goose this afternoon in Vernon. Struck out on Stebbins Road, so went to the hydro dam. Found a large flock of Canada geese just upstream of the dam and scanned it for an hour with my scope. No Barnacle, but there were two greater White-fronted Geese. Also a couple Gadwalls and 4 Widgeons.

Observed another yellow banded (Canada) goose today in Walpole with the letters GJN. Had 2 Great White-fronted with 20 Snows & 1000+ Canadas at Springfield Meadows this morning. Possibly the Vernon birds.

A leisurely ride along Ferry Road in northern Brattleboro afforded us good looks at a pair each of Red-bellied Woodpeckers and Eastern Bluebirds. Both species in brilliant spring plumage. Back at the Retreat Meadows we found the resident Red-tailed Hawk sunning itself in the top of a willow tree, while on Marina Road we observed a pair of Hooded Mergansers puddle-ducking in the little pond at the base of the radio tower.
