Any similar spots in N PG County or neighboring counties?

Michael and all,
    An addendum to my Morgan Run post-  if you join me for the owl hunt, try
not to step on any woodcocks. They seem to be moving thru Morgan Run in good
numbers. My guess is they are migrating to points north where there is less
danger of being long-eared by an owl. Laura and I had several (a rough guess
would be about 30) on Sat evening. We were further back than Bob Ringler was
and had considerably more of them. At times I had them whizzing past me in
pairs. Laura got a good look at one on the ground and I watched one for most
of its display flight. Beeps were coming from all directions.
