It is a small wading bird that lives in moist forests in eastern North America. Belonging to the sandpiper family, it is known for its unique mating flight. With a round body shape, short legs, and a straight beak that appears particularly long in proportion to the body, it is very suitable for exploring food in soil, especially earthworms. The eyes are large and round, located at a higher position on the head, providing a broad field of view that allows for almost a 360 degree view of the surrounding environment. In spring, male American sandpipers perform special aerial courtship shows at dusk or dawn, making the sound of "pee" and flying into the air in a spiral pattern to showcase their flying skills.
