The light was abysmal, but I finally made it to my local wetland hide for the first time since last summer. Out of the camera, all my photos were horribly flat but I think I managed to recover them...

You did pretty well despite the bad lighting.
I love the 2nd Snipe image. It's a bird that's not often seen out in the open.
The "tightroping" Redshank shows great timing on your part. That image is even better than the "docked" image of later. Good job!
