Description
The American Woodcock (Scolopax Minor) it is a migratory game bird, it comes here in province of Québec, Canada, around mid-March, and starting the first 2 weeks of November it goes back to the South of the USA.
This photo was taken yesterday I was in photographic hunting with Bobcat Celtick my pointing dog that first found (by its nose) and pointed this woodcock.
This woodcock took off his flight between me and my grouse dog that was on pointing pose, it took off his flight a few feet from me and goes over my head, I managed my in-flight photo by turning and following the woodcock while clicking in burst mode.
With out my pointing dog that first found (by its nose) and then pointed, I could not do this in-flight photo.

Thank you Rosalie. If you go and see in All About Birds website range map of the American Woodcock, in winter (non-breeding) they are also in South Florida.
