I have not been snipe hunting since my youth. I wasn't that good at it anyway. It appears that you are an experienced snipe hunter. Great capture! Thank you. They can be very difficult to approach and get close to. photocopy wrote in post #13963881 Actually i have never seen a picture of a Snipe... yrs ago at camp we would send the kids out on a Snipe hunt with a gunny sack.... ( even tho i thought it was some kind of rodant) LOL Yes, that was always the challenge given, with the older kids knowing there was no way someone could get close enough to a Snipe to put it in a gunny sack.

Feb 26, 2012 16:20 | #8 That's a great shot. I have only seen Snipes a couple of times. Last year it snowed twice where I was working in SW Arkansas and they showed up each time it snowed. The only lens I had at the time was a 24-105 and I trouble getting close enough to get a recognizable shot of them. Joe
