Willets
Although both parents incubate the eggs, only the male Willet spends the night on the nest.

Least Sandpipers
The Least Sandpiper is the smallest shorebird in the world, weighing in at about 1 ounce and measuring only 5-6 inches long (Males are slightly smaller)
Look how far north they have yet to travel before they reach their breeding grounds! That's a long flight, for sure!
