Wilson's snipe have been reported recently, in particular at Huntley Meadows
where I saw one. In looking at my records, I listed a "common snipe" last
year at Huntley. (I was in a group where someone else identified it.) In my
guidebooks (Peterson, Sibley, Kaufman, Nat'l Geographic), they either list
only a Wilson's or a common, not both. The earlier books seem to list
common and the later ones Wilson's.
Was there a name change? Should I change my earlier notation of common to
Wilson's?
Thanks!
