    Did you notice the Snipe when you took the photos, Joe?

    The reason I ask is that I 'found' a Snipe in a pic I once took at Keyhaven - once I'd downloaded it!

    Funnily enough, the same happened earlier this month when I tried to take silhouettes of Black Tailed Godwits at Keyhaven. Here is the photo. Can you spot the two (at least) odd ones out?

    I saw the snipe before I took the shot. This was closest it came to be in the open.
    I got a few of the snipe but it was behind the reeds.
