American Woodcock nest and chicks
Scolopax minor

Field Notes
Description:
I stumbled upon this nest as I was walking across my pasture. I posted a picture earlier of the female bird and these are her two chicks that were in the nest. The third picture is the nest, it's a little tunnel back into a clump of prairie grass, completely hidden from view.
Habitat:
Prairie grass surrounded by woodlands about 100 feet from a pond.
