Bird Patch - American Woodcock (#53 of collection)

No. 53 of the Bird Collective bird patch collection. Collect them all!

This cryptically-patterned shorebird evolved to live in upland habitats, and has collected many nicknames: timberdoodle, bogsucker, night partridge, big-eye, and mudbat. Its large eyes, set high and wide on the sides of its head, allow it to watch for danger from all directions as it probes for earthworms. In spring and summer, their spiraling courtship flights and strange vocalizations are hallmarks of forest clearings in the eastern forests of North America.

All embroidered bird patches have an iron-on backing, but the adhesive is temporary. For durability, we recommend sewing or using a permanent, flexible fabric glue.

Dimensions: 2.25" wide x 1.3" tall
