Abstrakt: The article explores the 2005-2009 observation of woodcock winter population in Ticino Valley Natural Park in the Novara Province of Northern Italy. Winter 2008/09 saw the highest woodcock density during the monitoring period with 8.5 birds/100 hectares. In February 2008, the authors observed that woodcock density was significantly lower compared to the previous two months. The authors conclude that the population they observed were homogenous and added that the area can be good for woodcock conservation.
