Gallinago sp Snipe at Bibra Lake, Perth

Hi all, Heather Thorning photographed a Gallinago sp. Snipe at Bibra Lake this morning, just north of the new bird hide in the NE of the lake (seen from the hide I believe). Several people failed to see it during the day, but Plaxy Barratt, Dan Mantle and Paul Newman have reported it showing again this arvo around 6.15pm, though I get the impression views were relatively distant. Obviously this group is a challenge to ID in the field, but any Gallinago is unusual in the south-west Cheers, John
