Woodcock Sighting

Driving along Kipling Rd around 9:00 pm the other night I noticed a commotion in the grasses along the edge of the road. I quickly stopped the car and turned it off. I jumped out just in time to see a woodcock fly into the air and do his dance - which was most impressive. And then he landed about 3 feet away from me right in the middle of the road. It was such a treat to get a close look at this comical looking bird, but not wanting to intrude I jumped back in the car and headed home.
