Figure 6 - Black-necked (Hawaiian) Stilt
Stilts are easily identified by their slender body, thin pointed bill, black and white plumage and extremely long legs. They are found worldwide in tropical and subtropical wetlands, where they feed on fish, worms, aquatic insects and crabs. Those that breed in Eurasia and North America are migratory.
The American Oystercatcher is one of eleven species of oystercatchers that occur worldwide. As a group, these birds are sedentary and strictly coastal, except for the Eurasian Oystercatcher, which is more migratory and breeds well inland in Eurasia.
