The name of this species could be misleading: it is 'short-billed' only by comparison to the Long-billed Dowitcher, and longer-billed than the average shorebird. Short-billed Dowitcher flocks wade in shallow water over coastal mudflats. They often seem rather tame, allowing a close approach when they are busy feeding.
