That's why I've never shot at a shorebird. Not a clue
I do know for sure that the big one laying in the floor of the blind is definitely not a snipe.

Make sure you know the difference if your going to hunt them.
That is why I have never pulled the trigger on one.

That looks like a black swan in the the floor? Pretty sure that’s not ok either.

If that looks like a black swan, then you need to look at a few more specklebellies on the floor of a duck blind.

Sniper John, I had a hard time identifying the difference until one of your posts either last year or the year prior. Then recognizing them in the field became pretty easy.

One tip is if your able to shoot a three man limit of Snipe from a pit duck blind, your probably not shooting snipe. That's was going to be my question. How on earth did they get that many snipe from a pit blind? I read your post last year on how to identify them, and other documents, I'm still confused. I expect this, along with balancing chemical equations, is something I will never master.
No matter how high a duck flies a hammer still breaks a window.
