Barb, When I was at CSU in the mid 1990s, I would often find dead woodcocks on the CSU campus during spring migration. It is a shame they get that far north, but then collide with buildings/windows as they attempt to head across the lake. Also, the Peregrines in downtown Cleveland occasionally take a woodcock too.

In their job to keep the streets clean, the cleaning crews disposed of it.
