The secretive, skulking #Snipe loves to play ‘hide and seek’ and is usually very good at it! I think sometimes though Snipes get a little overconfident in their ability to remain unseen – then they let their guard down a bit and start moving about in places where they are not so well concealed. I photographed this one at Brandon Marsh, Warwickshire, last month.

Back in September we took a trip to Minsmere. While at the Island Mere hide a Snipe came wandering out of the tall reeds to take a look about.
