I voted for the American Woodcock bird because of their cute funky dancing walk and their prehensile beak tips.

Round 2 Group 1

American kestrel - Falco sparverius

A small bird-of-prey sitting on a metal post, with its feathers puffed up and its head tucked into its shoulders. It has pale brown upperparts striped with dark brown, white underparts speckled with buff, a grey head with a pale brown cap, black and buff nape, white cheeks, and a faint black malar stripe under its eyes. Its bill is small, hooked and grey, with orange nostrils at the base, and its feet are scaly and yellow.

American woodcock - Scolopax minor

A bird walking in the snow, facing forwards at a slight angle. It has a large round body, a small head with large buggy eyes on the side, a very long straight pink bill with a black tip, and short narrow pink legs. Its plumage is orangey-brown, with a dark brown stripey pattern on its back, head and face.

Black-capped chickadee - Poecile atricapillus

A small, round bird perched on a lichen-covered twig, viewed at a three-quarter angle. It has a black cap and throat, white cheeks and belly, grey wings and tail, cream flanks, a small black bill, and black legs.

Bufflehead - Bucephala albeola

A small duck in the water. It has white underparts, a dark brown back, an irridescent head with shades of black, purple, green and red, and a large white patch on the back of its head and nape. Its bill is small and pale grey.

Please reblog with the bird you voted for and why!
