Info American woodcock (Scolopax minor), a plump, goofy shorebird of the forest floor that dances back and forth to search for worms in the ground. Typically very skittish and often challenging to find, for some reason they really like this one urban park in Manhattan, with a couple turning up each year. Makes it one of the few places where you can actually get a reasonably close shot. all by — Rhododendrites talk | 02:34, 26 March 2025 (UTC)

Support Excellent capture. The birds were on that land long before NY was built, glad to hear that some are not giving up their claim. ;-) --Cart (talk) 10:46, 26 March 2025 (UTC)
