Spotted Redshank
Tringa erythropus
- tidak umum
- 40 km/h
- Risiko rendah
Goes coal-black in breeding plumage — unrecognizable from its winter self. Two birds for the price of one delivery.
- Populasi
- The global population is roughly 110,000-350,000 individuals and considered stable.
- Habitat
- Breeds on wooded/shrubby tundra, boggy taiga edges and heathland with scattered trees; outside breeding season uses large muddy estuaries, brackish coastal lagoons, and freshwater marshes and lakes
- Fakta menarik
- The Spotted Redshank is unique among Tringa sandpipers for turning almost entirely sooty-black in breeding plumage, a transformation so dramatic from its pale grey winter dress that its dark red legs and namesake 'red foot' (from Greek erythros + pous) are one of the few features linking the two looks.
- Sebaran
- Breeds across northern Scandinavia and northern Siberia east to the Chukotsky Peninsula; winters from the Mediterranean basin and sub-Saharan Africa across the Middle East and southern Asia to southeastern China and Taiwan, with occasional vagrants reaching Australia and North America
- Makanan
- Aquatic and terrestrial insects and their larvae, plus crustaceans, molluscs, worms, small fish and amphibians, often caught by wading and scything the bill side-to-side through shallow water
