Saw my first woodcock for this Spring down along the Thames to day.
None North of the GTA yet then
Heard they have headed back south to Louisiana in disgust.
So far this spring there have been 4 field trials and 2 championships (all grouse & woodcock trials) cancelled due to Old Man Winter's grip on us
I'm breaking up with winter summer is hotter and I think we should start to see other seasons
My daughter had the britt out in the forest on leash yesterday. The dog went on hard point and eventually, my daughter was able to see the woodcock - 45 min. north of barrie - still a foot of snow in the bush. Get out there people...they're back. :)

Thank you.
Reports from Gladwin look like nothing will be cancelled or moved this year.
Had the dog out this morning, she found two woodcock a little west of London. Birds seemed tired as they only flew a very short distance, must be burned out from the migration.
