It was a cool morning in May which here on the island of Newfoundland can often bring frost in the early mornings. I decided to head to a location where I've had luck photographing Wilson's Snipe in the past. I tend to hit this location early in the Spring session before the marsh grasses begin to grow tall and provide shelter for the shy Snipe. Once I arrived at my location all the grasses where covered in beautiful frost and just as the sun began to creepy into the scene this Snipe walked out in the open for a brief moment allowing me to capture this image.
