My first flight shot of a Snipe. I was shooting at at it while it was perched on a fence post and got this one frame as it took flight.

This one gave me my complimentary "Snipe on a fence post" for the season. They seem so skittish when encountered on a trail walk, but will allow a very close approach when perched on a roadside fence post.

Common Snipe, I had to take a second look at this from my car as i passed it, and it was calling too! A first for me!

I always love to see Snipe on their moorland breeding grounds. This one allowed me to photograph it from over a wall.

I believe this is a Wilson's Snipe. Found in Wyoming south of Laramie. A shy bird but one I have never captured before.
There is a camper's gag sending new young campers to go looking for a snipe.. I've been looking for the last 50 years.- I guess they do exist.
