2 Wilson's Snipe at Deer Creek, Hildebrand Ranch Park, JeffCo

[David Suddjian]

Late this afternoon two Wilson's Snipe surprised me when they flushed up as I walked along Deer Creek near the Hildebrand Ranch parking lot. In fact, they were the only birds I noted during 20 minutes there, aside from a party of geese passing over. They flew up one after the other, moving what seemed to be just a short ways upstream, but I could not relocate them. 

The Harris's Sparrow continued in my Ken Caryl yard near sunrise today.
