I had a woodcock do that to me in Dover Forge, on the trail in, about 10 years ago. I saw the nest she was protecting, it was on the ground in the meadow. She was limping on the trail right in front of me, trying to draw me away from the young ones.

Not sure if that's the right thing to do just to satisfy our curiosity. It's obvious ma or pa don't want anyone near the nest.
I don't want anyone near my nest either but unfortunately have quite a few undesirables floating up and down my street at all hours of the night on foot and bikes.It's odd that every time I go to back out of my drive to go to work at midnight I have to ease out of the driveway so I don't run some punk over out trying to make a drug deal.No street lights so this can be tricky. If the bird had half my neighbor problems it would up and fly away.Unfortunately I don't have any wings.
That wouldn't help because there has never been confirmation of what type of bird Woodstock is Al.
From Wikipedia:
Snoopy has often wondered what type of bird Woodstock is. At one point Snoopy attempts to identify him with the aid of a field guide, asking Woodstock to attempt to imitate various birds: crow, American bittern, Carolina wren, rufous-sided towhee, yellow-billed cuckoo, Canada goose, warbler and mourning warbler. Snoopy finally gives up trying to figure it out, and hurts Woodstock's feelings by saying, "For all I know, you're a duck". Snoopy takes it back with a quick hug, at which point it becomes clear that it does not matter what type of bird Woodstock is; the only important fact is that he is Snoopy's best friend.
Schulz never definitively answered the question of what type of bird Woodstock was supposed to be.
It depends on which genus of Woodstock one means. The Woodstock bird is actually a Dove
I can't believe I wrote Woodstock instead of Woodcock.Must be the Hippie in me coming out.I was five years old at Woodstock.Don't remember much.I must've been stoned.
