Birds in the rain 4, Common Snipe, タシギ

Rain comes and goes for a while and then turns solid. It provides a curtain, my natural blind. I stay dry inside Esther the Estima. What else to do on a day like this? As expected the Snipes turn out en masse. They love that water pouring down on them.

Happy together  with a Wood Sandpiper, タカブシギ on the left 

and a Terek Sandpiper, ソリハシシギ  on the right.

The rain picks some more

Time to go home now. A typhoon is on its way...
