Hi all,

  This morning I went up in the drizzle and fog to see if the Wilson's Snipe were still around;
they were (Thanks Ron for posting:) I birded from my car (aka Andy Martin) inbetween showers, and when the rain stopped I went out to lake edge with my scope. I didn't locate the RB Nuthatch or the pipit.  The rain become heavy so I departed, soaked. If you're gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough.
