Woodcock Walk

Posted

Experience the magic of the Woodcock Walk at the Norman Bird Sanctuary. One of the harbingers of the spring season, the Woodcock is a charismatic bird that often finds its home here at the Sanctuary.

Learn about the Woodcock and its habits during a walk along our trails with a team of NBS Naturalists. Ask questions, explore our trails, and hopefully catch sight of its iconic mating dance.

Jim McGaw

A lifelong Portsmouth resident, Jim graduated from Portsmouth High School in 1982 and earned a journalism degree from the University of Rhode Island in 1986. He's worked two different stints at East Bay Newspapers, for a total of 18 years with the company so far. When not running all over town bringing you the news from Portsmouth, Jim listens to lots and lots and lots of music, watches obscure silent films from the '20s and usually has three books going at once. He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
