About These Birds

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.

Willet

Willet: 33–41 cm, large stocky North American shank with bold black-and-white wingbar spectacular in flight, grey-blue legs, and loud 'pill-will-willet' call. Two populations: eastern breeds on Atlantic coast salt-marshes, western on prairie wetlands. Winters on both American coasts south to South America. Feeds on invertebrates.
