Willets (Tringa semipalmata) are a long-legged, straight-billed shorebird that feeds along beaches, mudflats, and rocky shores. Because they find prey using the sensitive tips of their bills, and not just eyesight, Willets can feed both during the day and at night.
Willets are often seen alone. They walk deliberately, pausing to probe for crabs, worms and other prey in sand and mudflats, or to pick at insects and mollusks. When startled, they react with a piercing call, often opening their wings and running rather than taking flight.
