Black-winged Stilt nest
The Black-winged Stilt is a distinctive wader found across Europe, Asia, Africa, and Australia. Known for its long, slender red legs and striking black-and-white plumage, it inhabits shallow wetlands, salt pans, and mudflats. With a needle-like bill, it feeds on insects, crustaceans, and small aquatic organisms. Black-winged Stilts are sociable birds, often seen in flocks. They nest in colonies, building simple ground nests. Their graceful appearance and characteristic high-pitched calls make them a notable presence in wetland ecosystems.
