Wilson's Snipe m. _64A1850
Kananaskis, AB
I could hear his land call so knew there was a Snipe at this pond however, he was not my prime target so he caught me totally off guard when up he flushed and flew back where I had just come from, and of course was backlit. Thanks to some photoshop recovery we can see those unique tail feathers that are responsible to make that familiar springtime winnowing sound over marshes.
