		Dan,
		after blanking on the wood stork I thought I'd try last  
evening                        								to salvage the day by trying  
for the woodcocks you'd mentioned 										out at Greenbury Point by  
the Naval Aacademy Golf course.

		I didn't go "all around the point," but did stop at the little wooden
		Observation Platform to the left of the asphalt trail just behind
		the Visitor Center.

		Somewhere around 6:10 I heard a half-dozen calls, likely all from
		the same bird, as well as the whirring sound of one flight display.

		I also looked around and asked myself (with a dope slap up beside
		the head)  why I'd not thought of looking for them here before;
		especially with the second growth maturing now it's a perfect site.

		Many thanks, to you & Isla.

			Leo
