Thank you Adam (Owlet)! I went to Steves Farm in Richmond this morning hoping to see the ever elusive Snipe. Just like you said, far end of Steveston Hwy (small parking lot there - max 6 cars; but street parking is available). Very short walk up onto the dyke, and they even have several benches and picnic tables for us old folks to park our butts on! I didn't see anything for about 10 minutes but then there was a flurry of activity and about 6 of them flew in and landed maybe 50 feet away. Then another 4 or so and they landed even closer.

I checked on the Blue Jay on the way home but after 30 minutes didn't see him. Oh well, it was still a successful birding day. Thanks again Adam...the tip was much appreciated.
