[QUOTE="MKinHK, post: 3691185, member: 21760"] Looking for Woodcock at night is one of my enduring memories of my early birding years. Two of my mates and I went looking for them with a teacher (Doc Kershaw) who was a birder. We stood straining our eyes and ears at the edge of a silent clearing in Wareham forest - the three of us staring one way and Doc the other. As the silence stretched Doc let out a huge scream at which point we apparently all leaped foot in the air in perfectly synchronised panic while he nearly fell over laughing. Despite this heart-attack inducing moment we did see both Woodcock and Nightjar for the first time. Cheers Mike [/QUOTE]
