A last minute attempt using the thermal imager after seeing 4 Woodcock close to the road while driving to the morning's ringing session for the 7:30am meet. DKH had also seen some so it seemed there may have been an influx of birds.
It was a dark and windy night, and in the three or so hours at Deepdale at least 7 Woodcock were seen, and one captured. There were also several Skylark, again one caught. There was one Jack Snipe but it evaded CL.
