The Black-necked Stilt is a locally abundant shorebird of American wetlands and coastlines. Adults have long pink legs and a long thin black bill. They are white below and have black wings and backs. The tail is white with some grey banding. A continuous area of black extends from the back along the hindneck to the head.
Fun Fact They have the second-longest legs in proportion to their bodies of any bird, exceeded only by flamingos.
