  1. woodcock snipe

    A woodcock snipe is a game bird often confused with two different species, the common snipe and the woodcock. Both belong to the family Scolopacidae in the order Charadriiformes and are found in wetland habitats. They are known for their long bills, used for probing in mud for worms and insects. The term "woodcock snipe" isn't scientifically accurate as it seems to refer to both birds, but people often use it in casual parlance.
