Committee's view
Background
Identification was made based on absence of call when taking flight versus 2 other Pin-tailed Snipes that were present and identified by call when taking flight. At present we do not accept records of this species with no thorough descriptions or evidence as they are very difficult to distinguish in the field from the similar looking Pin-tailed Snipe.
Verdict Not accepted (Unverifiable)
