Heading home I thought I saw something move on the other side of the pond & took a quick shot in the general area. I didn't know if anything was there was until I enlarged it.
A well camouflaged Wilsons Snipe I believe. DDL recommended.
uncropped, hand held. 700mm

Fun! Shots like this, when you only know what you have when you see it on the computer screen, remind me of that magic moment in the darkroom when a print comes alive in the developing tray. Another enjoyable post, thanks.

More fun trying to convince some people that they are real, not just an "outing" for kids!

Excellent, Victor and double-clicking really makes it stand out!

Thanks Swamp-Cork and everyone for the comments & looking.
Years ago I heard about Snipe hunts & never realized then, that there actually were Snipe (s?). Now I see why they are so hard to find.

I used to take girl snipe hunting in high school. No camera.
