Sniper.

This is DOM finding the gap in the trees for a reasonably close view of a reedbed and muddy edge. Today's target species was nailed here - Common Snipe - four of 'em. We scanned and waited for Jack, Water Rail, Cetti's and Bittern - all present here but seeing them is a different matter. Unlike the BTO folks, we're adding one or two each day rather than getting all the birds in one visit and having to resort to mammals. Not that we're at all jealous about regular Otter sightings...
