Painted Snipe this morning

[Mark Clayton <>]

Brian,

Given how cryptic this pair has been, I reckon that is a pretty good shot.

Here is a photo of the pair from Monday about 8am.  They were a long way away (on the western side of Kelly Swamp) and mostly hidden in vegetation so hard to get a decent shot.

I was there on one day in the last week and didn't knowingly see them (I wondered but was too distant). Anyway I am sure from your photo, that it is the Aust Painted-snipe.

Subject: Painted Snipe this morning

Can anyone who witnessed the wing stretches before I arrived this morning, confirm this is the snipe.  It refused to give me head views. It was in the same location.
