Might get up there tomorrow evening, weather permitting. Never heard a drumming snipe. Could even hear the first gropper of the year!

Belmont Reservoir at dusk is a good place to watch Snipe displaying/drumming.

2 snip were drumming last night at Belmont. Why not come along this week and listen to them, you can also rescue some toads at the same time 😁😁
