I was at the business park that is just east of the former Euclid Square Mall on the east side of E. 260th St. in Euclid today from around 2:30 to 3:30pm. I usually leave the name of the location off of any postings as the land is under development and two large bldgs. have gone in the last few years swallowing up the habitat.  When I drove in a noticed a Wilson's Snipe sitting close to the road on the left.  But as I processed further past the furthest east bldg. on the north side of the road I started noticing many Wilson's Snipe.  Some were just sitting there and some were feeding approx. 20 from the road in the very wet grasses.  Some were closer to the curb. You definitely don't want to get out of the car.  Most were on the north side but then I noticed some were on the south side of the road especially closer to the entrance to the place.  I counted at least 51.  I am sure there were many more but I did notice when some Killdeer made some noises and a train went down the track many stood at alert.  Also, the Eastern Meadowlarks were visible.
