Observation details
A continuing bird first discovered January 11 and present until mid March. Compared to Wilson's Snipe, this individual was much buffier overall, had reduced barring on the flanks and wider/paler barring on the tertials. Photos of the underwing (not my photos but visible here: https://birdtherock.files.wordpress.com/2012/05/common-snipeunderwing.jpg) clearly showed reduced/narrower dark barring diagnostic of this species. Second photographically confirmed record for insular Newfoundland and third for the province.
