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.

The first time I drove down this road, there was a snipe sat up on a post. My next visit (7 years later), this Snipe was sat on the exact same post.

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.

I will be away for while after today, out taking pictures (hopefully).

I was watching a black phoebe working the far side of this pond, when a snipe flew in. Switched my subject for a while!

Thank you for taking the time to have a look at my images!!

Spotted this Wilson's snipe across the creek, and managed to get a few shots of it without it noting my presence.

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.
