The game bird in North America known for its long beak is the American Woodcock. This bird has a distinctive, elongated bill that it uses to probe the ground for earthworms and other invertebrates. Woodcocks are also recognized for their unique mating display, which includes elaborate aerial performances. They are primarily found in wet, wooded areas and are popular among bird hunters.
A group of woodcocks is called a "fall" or a "fallen." Woodcocks are typically solitary birds except during the mating season when they form loose groups.
