Haven’t hunted either much other than a woodcock that my dog flushed opportunistically while we were looking for quail, but I’m looking to get into it more often. Here, our woodcock and snipe have very different seasons, but it seems that they look nearly identical, especially when you’re faced with a flushed bird rapidly getting away. What do you look for to tell the difference? Not just the anatomical differences that could be spotted on the ground, how do you tell in flight?
