I just got back from a walk to the beach and found one of the snipes =
dead at the end of my driveway. It had been struck by a car. It is now =
in a baggie in my freezer. If you know of anyone who would like to =
confirm its identity or would like it for archival reasons please let me =
know. Still haven't located the second one again.

Fawne, forgive my questioning, but a lawn sounds to me more like =
the migration habitat for woodcocks rather than snipes. Can you just =
confirm for me that they were not woodcocks? Thanks very much. I =
