little ringed plover (Charadrius dubius)


Description
Eesti: Väiketüll kuulub Eestis III kaitsekategooriasse. Tal on kollane silmarõngas, must nokk, lennul on tal nähtav tiivaalune valge joon. Noorlindudel puudub silma taga hele laik ja otsaesine on tumedam kui liivatülli noorlinnul. Väiketüll pesitseb kiviklibul mageveekogude ääres ja harvem ka kruusaaukudes. Teinekord pesitseb ka mererannas. Toitu meeldib otsida mudastest kohtadest, mere ääres näiteks mõõnaga tekkinud laidudelt.

The little ringed plover (Charadrius dubius) is a small plover. The genus name Charadrius is a Late Latin word for a yellowish bird mentioned in the fourth-century Vulgate. It derives from Ancient Greek kharadrios a bird found in river valleys (kharadra, "ravine"). The specific dubius is Latin for doubtful, since Sonnerat, writing in 1776, thought this bird might be just a variant of common ringed plover.
