Red-necked Stint
Calidris ruficollis
Near ThreatenedThe Red-necked Stint is a shorebird of East Asian flyways, northern breeding grounds, and Indo-Pacific wintering coasts. 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.
