Can anyone confirm or suggest anything else...

(Sorry it's such a poor picture but as you can see this bird was not in the mood for posing!)

Hi,  Looks like a Woodcock.  They normally fly with the beak hanging down and have a kind of flicking wing action.  This plus the chunky body make me think it is a Woodcock.  The cold weather is making them come out of cover more so they are being seen a lot.  Hope this helps.  Macrude.
