| A bevy of at least 60 snipe seen on a brief visit today; unlike yesterday the vast majority were gathered together on the island spit , with a dozen or so in the cut reeds immediately in front of the hide. Disturbed from the spit, flock flew around and dropped in front of the hide, before taking off and returning to the spit. Could easily be double this number hidden by the reeds! Jack snipe not seen. |
