In Table 2 the dates are shown on which high number of finds were 
made during the last six winters. For the most part, these high counts 
occurred the last half of January or the first week of February. 
apparently there was a movement of woodcock out of the pine land area 
between mid-February and mid-March. For in 20 hours of field work with the 
dogs the last half of March, no woodcock finds were made.
