>From time to time, I report on the over-wintering Wilson's Snipes in Wild >River State Park. Under somewhat challenging conditions, I checked Deer Creek >in WRSP this morning, March 17, 2014. My intent was to see if the birds >survived the Polar Vortex winter that we are just wrapping up. I was pleased >to find at least 8 Wilson's Snipes in that stream. I saw those 8 leave from >one location. Other snipes were observed in ones or twos, but I could not >rule out that they were from the gang of 8. My sense is that there were more >than 10, but 8 for sure.
