Description
The American Woodcock takes a heavy take-off flight with dangling legs when she is with her chicks, this is to attract the predator to her.
This take-off flight she also did when she is on her nest. This woodcock was on her nest and looking to the left side (see my previous photo), I was surprised by her take-off flight to the right side, with the dangling legs.
