From this summer at the North Sea - a common snipe poking in the muddy ground in search for food. Snipes really have quite a technique and really long beaks.

BOTD: Wilson's Snipe

Photo: Becky Matsubara

"Often overlooked in migration and winter, the snipe is a solitary creature of wet fields and bogs, seldom seen on open mudflats. Flushed from the marsh, it darts away in zigzag flight, uttering harsh notes. The Wilson's Snipe becomes more flamboyant in the breeding season, when it often yammers from atop a fencepost or dead tree. At night on the nesting grounds, the ghostly winnowing flight sound of the males often echoes across the marshes."
