Wilson's Snipe
Shot lying in the freezing mud at a local lake over the holiday. With the low light (the sun hadn't risen yet) and my shaking hands, I was happy to get anything reasonably sharp.
I thought the leaf added a bit of Fall color. I also did some work on the foreground. This image is far from perfect, but it's not often that a Wilson's Snipe cooperates.

Great HA and eye contact! I am glad you were rewarded for your efforts.
Fantastic shot of this Snipe Aidan love the low angle and pose.
Super shot with nice details , compo and BG

I love it, the eye contact, the pose, unusual HA, drop on the bill, great sharpness, BG. I'm not sure about the orange leaf on the left though, but does not distract too much. I don't see this bird too often and haven't seen many photos either. Congrats!
Love the H/A and the sharp eye ,agree that this is one bird that you must grab every opportunity that nature offers you to photograph it ,lovely image
I like this shot a lot Aidan, not getting the feet in the shot doesn't bother me as everything else makes up for it.
Nice low angle image. Excellent light and the HA.
love this cutie, excellent HA, sharpness and EXP right on.

Well done, nice sharp image- like how the dark feathers contrast with the muted environment. Glad we do not have freezing mud around here- will rather brave extreme heat.
Love the low angle and superb eye contact you captured in this one Aidan. Fine work and thanks for sharing.
Certainly the hard work paid off Aidan. I really like the look back pose and very low angle. Nicely done. Dave
Your efforts paid off, lovely low angle and nice head turn. I would consider removing the orange leaf?
