Dogs are barking at something and chickens are also producing odd alarm calls in the dark. I think there is a lot of woodcocks stacked up here caught between recent warm spell and storm event coming tomorrow. The day before I could better than a dozen males calling on the ground. When they launched they did appear to be going up to display, rather they were flying northeast. When we pulled into drive just a bit ago we flushed a couple walking around in drive and dogs where watching them. The woodcocks will either need to fly south or possibly hunker down for some really bad weather coming tomorrow night.
 
Sounds like most of us are in for it tomorrow. Supposed to be record breaking here...I could do without records at the moment. Just had a calf about an hour ago. Tough buggers! Hope everyone and their animals stay safe!
Dry and out of wind with mothers milk to get calves fired up for cold.
