Wilson's Snipe / Littleton / Jeffco

[Dave Cameron]

Had a solid half hour admiring a Wilson's Snipe this afternoon on Bufflehead Lake, which is the pond with the bird blind on the South side of Mineral, South of Cooley Lake.  Which is to say, on the Platte, South of the Carson Nature Center.

The pond is very low, affording mud flats on the south side, in immediate view of the blind.  Also present were a Killdeer, a dozen or more American Wigeon, a couple of pairs of Hooded Merganser, etc.
