Observation details
Observed two of the willets doing what seemed to be a courtship dance/ritual. One (probably the male) started following the other (probably female) very closely. The two of them ran up and down the beach quickly many times, occasionally flying for brief spurts. This continued for at least 10 minutes, though I don't think it ended in coupling as the two eventually went their separate ways.
