American Woodcocks inhabit our wet fields and have one of the most fascinating courtship behaviors of any New Jersey bird. As the sun sets on warm March evenings, the males begin to call for females and then take to the sky in a dizzying dance. Come witness this spectacle for yourself! Meet at the Tower Hill springhouse (944 Mountain View Road, Asbury). Please note, there is no restroom facility at this location.
