JACK SNIPE JOY

A dawn raid on Ashton's Flash required a bit of stealthing to avoid the herd of Hebridean sheep that prowl the interior. 


Having negotiated the deadly grass munchers I ventured on to the lime bed and commenced searching for snipe, woodcock, short-eared owls even water pipits you just never know these days.
It took all of 10 minutes to get the required goodie on the list one Jack Snipe and a further 40+ Common Snipe.
Reed Bunting and Meadow Pipit were also seen.
No need to venture out here again job done for the year...sorted!
