Episode 64: It's a Hard (wood) Cock Life: (American Woodcock)
Life is tough for an American Woodcock. You nest on the ground, everything wants to eat and shoot you, and your habitat is decreasing. Plus, even the ornithologists seem not to care about your evolution! On the plus side, migration is more of a swinging vacation than an arduous journey! Join John as he talks all about the American Woodcock's funny vocalizations and feeding behaviors, its conservation concerns, and its unique courtship display. Recorded on a breezy day in First Landing State Park, even a fox stops by to listen!.Thanks to dreamroux for suggesting this episode!..Intro music by Ricky Pistone and outro music by the Sidewalk Slammers..Birds sounds from xeno-canto.orgOpening Call by Jim Berry.Meep Call by Alex Lin-Moore.Up Close Call by Justin Watts.Flight Call Justin Saucier.Cackle by Paul Driver.Wing Whistle by Paul Driver
