We saw this Wilson's Snipe earlier this week in North Arlington. We detected a little motion and discovered this fellow.
We have been trying to photograph one for the blog for more than a year. Sometimes you just get lucky.
More on Wilson's Snipes — and why they are no longer called Common Snipes — here.
great picture Jim!
Nice job. These are really hard to spot.
Very cool. I saw a Wilson’s Snipe earlier this month up in Sackville, New Brunswick, Canada, at the Sackville Waterfowl Park, and also managed to catch a photo. I was quite excited. Your photo is sort of similar. 🙂
