That's what I'd be afraid of Gee! there's a new Jacksnipe with a center searchlight. Never would do for rutty roads. How do you like the wire wheels, Jim? Bad for side strains, I should think. Look at those foxy inset lamps. Listen to that engine purr two cycle, I'll bet. Say, Fifth Avenue is certainly one great street! I could walk up and down here for a month.
His place just now is filled by the jacksnipe, which flutters up from every boggy place and comes to bag in a condition anything but suggestive of short commons. The snipe's terrestrial surface lies two and a half inches beneath ours. At that distance he strikes hard pan; but it is margin enough for his operations, and he is not often caught among the shorts.
After lunch two of the party in the runabout drove out of the valley to some place familiar to them. They returned later with the limit of jacksnipe big, fat, thick-breasted, meaty looking birds. My companion and myself returned to our blinds. The duck flight during the fore part of the afternoon was exceedingly light. I managed to land, among others, a beautiful canvasback drake.
Then he was safe on the far side of a swell and Collins was grinning ruefully at a wolfless landscape. "Coyote stuff!" he said. "A man might as well gun up the corkscrew flight of a jacksnipe as to pour lead through the gaps in a side-steppin' freak like that. But you, Breed, you better keep your eye on me. The Coyote Prophet is out for your scalp so walk soft, old boy, walk soft."
