Index of Subjects I happened to open the back door tonight at 8 p.m., and heard a sound which at first registered as 'Nighthawk'(???), then I realized that it must be a Woodcock. It was very close, about 30 M., and I yelled for my husband to come and look for it. He eventually saw it fly off, but it had been on some bare ground from which our neighbour had shovelled snow. We identified it by sound, not by sight. Hope he found some worms and will return! A new yard bird! Reminds me of the first Am. Woodcock we ever saw, waddling through the deep snow in late winter or early spring towards our door when we lived in Northern N.B. years ago. Had no idea what it was at the time, but it is a picture I will never forget. Lois Codling L. Sackville
