Here is a woodcock nest we stumbled across last spring. The bird nearly flew into my wife's face as we looked down at a snapped off pine tree.

Very cool bird.  Seen a lot of them.  They seem to small to eat to me.
Anything that is free is worth saving up for.

Very cool, gives me hope to see a few more. Would like to come across a grouse nest one of these days as well. Seriously, that's a pretty keen eye you have to spot those buggers.

I see a lot of the woodcock birds but never a nest.  Probably stepped on a few though.
