8 February 2013

When I walked for the mail this afternoon I was very surprised to encounter
a Wilson's Snipe.  It flushed from the ditch on Prospect Road (Rte 333)
between Bayview Drive and the White's Lake Legion, and then flew up Bayview
Drive.  I did not relocate it.

The species is already on the DOWL, but it is the first time I've ever had
a February snipe.

Note: to be honest my view of the bird was insufficient to rule out Common
Snipe, but I am going with the odds.

Cheers,

Blake
