Ours would have to be the American Woodcock in our backyard - doing his
little dance.

Subject: [mou-net] Most Surprising Bird?
What is your most surprising bird of the (half) year?
Mine would have to be the (lifer) Chuck's-wills-widow that visited our
Kansas backyard the first week we moved here from central Minnesota; then
it, of course, hasn't dropped by audibly or visibly since.
(Unless, of course, it was the surfeit of shorebirds that graced Princeton
Sewage Ponds our last week or so in Princeton, adding new county birds not
seen in the previous nine years there. Nice to have godwits and avocets
dropping bye to say goodbye.)
