Well, after looking in the books, the very stocky bird with a distinctive long 
bill and very short wings found this afternoon on 17th Street NW appears to be 
close to David Sibley's rendition of a common snipe.  I have never seen any 
snipe in the US, and he was really so gorgeous.  
Has anyone found snipe in DC? Would he have come from Fort McNair and Hains 
Point?
