Black-necked Stilt Patch

#38 Black-necked Stilt

Delicate looking shorebirds with long pink legs, Black-necked Stilts forage in shallow wetlands, walking purposefully in search of tiny invertebrates. Their range spans from Argentina all the way to the Pacific Northwest, and there’s also a Hawaiian subspecies. They belong to the same family as the American Avocet, another elegant black-and-white shorebird.
