Sloughed Off Feather
Subject:
Wilson's Snipe
Location:
Weld County, Colorado
Description:
This Wilson's Snipe was standing on a fence post and grooming. When it started shaking itself like a wet dog, I took three photos in rapid succession. In the first, the feather is beginning to come off the bird. In the third it's drifting away beneath the top of the post. This is the second.
