That sounds like typical woodcock behavior any more. There's nothing better than a Gordon pointing woodcock for her man.
Just curious where you're hunting, Alfred (nothing specific, just generally). I grew up in the Old Dominion and have hunted in quite a few different areas...way back when. Flushed my first woodcock while bow hunting as a kid in York County. I've been fascinated by them ever since.
