Hi, Patrick. There's an avocet here also, but it's a different bird (although related,) with a bill that turns up at the tip, and slightly different coloring. You're lucky to have heard the song - I never have, or not that I'm aware of. I don't see either bird very often. Beth
Nice pic of this stilt and his funny pose. Please don't feel you have to answer my comments. It is hard not to comment, but it always takes time to answer. I really like your photos and still have many more to go. Best wishes from Melbourne. Helen
