Added Wilson's Snipe to my yard list today.  About 4:30 pm, I walked 
across the street to see my neighbor. While talking to her and looking 
back at my house, a bird flushed from the ground near the side of my 
house. At first, I passed it off as a Mourning Dove but something didn't 
seem right.   About  a half  hour later, something was still bugging me 
about the way the bird took off from the ground, so I went back outside, 
walked behind the house next door and was pleasantly surprised to see a 
Wilson's Snipe.  I bet if I lived for 300 years, I could have a yard 
list as big as Harry Armisteads!
