Woodstock is a small bird who first appeared in the Peanuts comic strips in 1966.
When a mother bird made a nest on Snoopy's stomach, the faithful beagle ended up raising the chicks. One had trouble flying and never left.
That small bird would later be named Woodstock in 1970, after the famous New York music festival of 1969. Since then, he and Snoopy have been best friends.

Here's what creator Charles M. Schulz had to say about Woodstock:
"Woodstock knows that he is very small and inconsequential indeed. It’s a problem we all have. The universe boggles us... Woodstock is a lighthearted expression of that idea."
Is Woodstock male or female? Though sometimes depicted as a female secretary during 1960s comics, the bird has definitely been referred to as male since being named in 1970.
However, in some international translations, Woodstock is given feminine names and referred to as "she."
