Notes:
Although Woodcock do not breed in Cornwall, they are a common winter visitor. Because of their secretive nature more are seen by shooters, than by naturalists. They rest by day in marshy willow carr, to fly out at dusk to feed on farmland. During periods of snow and freezing temperatures, thousands move into the milder areas of the south-west. At this time they can often be seen feeding by day in open unfrozen patches of land.
