[cayugabirds-l] Rochester birding
I'll be in Rochester in a couple of weeks meeting a friend from California who is a beginner - intermediate birder. He will be recovering from surgery so may not be up to birding many sites. I'm wondering if someone familiar with the "birding hotspots" listed on the Rochester Bird Club website and could suggest which ones might be most rewarding to visit around March 10 - 13.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Woodcock Peenting
I read in "Bulls Birds of New York State (1998 edition) that woodcock".among our earliest breeders, with males reported in display as early as the last week in January and, commonly, by the last week of February."(pg. 268) That being said, these reports could possibly be from other (coastal?/southern?) N.Y. State.
