Snipe (Gallinago gallinago)
Bekassine
After long search we have found the Snipe. 75 minutes we have stood 20 metres away about and have waited that he moves. We had to stand quite quiet not to frighten the pretty guy. All the time this well disguised bird observed us and moved only millimetre for millimetre. Because we did not want to chase away him, we have not gone closer. At the end we have surrendered because for us was too cold. Maybe he lets himself take a photo another spot in full size.
