Oh no! American Woodcocks are masters of camouflage.

It’s even better if you have a chance to look at photos before you head to a hotspot. (Before each of my trips, I search for photos of birds I’m really hoping to see, such as “life birds” or rarities.) Think of it as a bird texting you a photo (or message) of exactly where they’re sitting in a restaurant so you can find them when you get there. Some like to lunch out in the open, others in a densely hidden picnic spot. When you arrive, keep an eye out for habitat scenes and landmarks (for example, signs, flagpoles, buildings) like those depicted in the photos. Many hotspots span a wide area, so it’s a good idea to read photo comments for specific directions or location information; also look for people with binoculars gathered around the expected habitat.

Good to know: Contributing your bird photos and audio to Macaulay Library will not only help others find more birds, it will aid in research and conservation. It’s easy—just upload them to your eBird checklists and they will become part of the collection.
