Black-winged Pratincole

Glareola nordmanni

Least Concern

The Black-winged Pratincole is a shorebird of northeast Asian breeding areas and East Asian coastal wintering grounds. It uses its bill, legs, and alert flight to feed on invertebrates, seeds, or small aquatic prey along coasts, mudflats, rivers, lakes, grasslands, or open ground; many shorebirds make impressive seasonal movements between breeding and non-breeding areas.
