Breeds on upland moors, bogs, and wet grassland; winters on estuaries and coasts. Feeds on worms, crabs, and invertebrates. NT. Severely declining due to agricultural change on breeding grounds.
American Woodcock
American Woodcock: 25–31 cm, rotund crepuscular wader with cryptic dead-leaf plumage, large eyes set high on the head, and an extremely long flexible bill for probing earthworms. Inhabits moist woodland and shrubby margins in eastern North America; winters in southern US. Famous for spiralling courtship 'sky dance.' Migratory.
