[TN-Bird] American Woodcock

This evening, around 6:30 PM, I headed over to the "Woodcock grounds", right by 
the creek on my property. I brought along the camera and tripod this time. I 
got there and set up in a location where I was concealed pretty well, but not 
enough to where I couldn't see the bird. In the past, he would come a few 
minutes after I positioned myself. This time, however, I had to wait a good 
10-15 minutes.  He flew in to the same area as always, and I snapped a few 
pictures (pretty blurry because of the shutter speed). I enjoyed him for about 
5 minutes, then I left after he had done a few flight displays. Still no sign 
of  a female, but I'm still hoping!
