We are indeed not 100% sure of the identification. Resting Snipe is really difficult for us. We thought it was Pintail/Swinhoe snipe because of its "shorter" bill and relatively narrow and pale back longitudinal stripe.   Attached is another snipe with longer bill for comparison. We are quite sure that this one is Common Snipe since we regretted to have flushed it away. As a responsible bird-watcher, it is not good to flush snipes in order to confirm identification.   http://www.hkdcug.com/modules/coppermine/albums/userpics/13206/Common%20 Snipe.jpg Long Valley 9/10/2004 « Last Edit: Oct 13th, 2004, 4:35pm by carmen » Logged Pages: 1  Reply Send Topic Print Forum Jump: ----------------------------- Announcement 簡訊通告 -----------------------------  - Membership Affair 會員事務   - Outings / Activities 戶外活動 / 講座   - Projects 項目計劃   - Crested Bulbul Club 紅耳鵯俱樂部 ----------------------------- Discussion Area 討論區 -----------------------------  - General 一般問題   - Conservation 自然保育   - Bird Identification 鳥類辨識   - Birding Reports & Tips 觀鳥報告及心得 => Photo Gallery 相片分享 I   - Photo Gallery 相片分享 II ----------------------------- Special Topics 特別主題 -----------------------------  - Wild Birds & Avian Flu 野鳥與禽流感   - Sustainable Management Scheme in Long Valley 塱原可持續生態管理計劃   - Black-faced Spoonbill 黑臉琵鷺   - Goodbye Penfold 告別彭福   - Tern Conservation 燕鷗保育   - Black-eared Kite 鳶(麻鷹)   - Swifts and Swallows 燕與雨燕   - China Birdwatching Network 中國觀鳥活動網絡   - Winter Altas Survey 冬季鳥類普查   - Nature Conservation Policy 自然保育政策 ----------------------------- Knowledge Sharing 知識分享 -----------------------------  - FAQ 常見問題   - Archive 資料重溫 « Previous topic | Next topic »
