Red Knot family
The Red Knot is a remarkable migratory shorebird, traveling vast distances from its Arctic breeding grounds to wintering sites in South America, Africa, and Australasia. Known for its striking reddish-brown plumage during breeding season, the Red Knot undergoes a dramatic color change to a more subdued gray in winter. This bird's endurance is outstanding, with some individuals flying over 9,000 miles during migration. Red Knots feed on small invertebrates, playing a crucial role in their coastal ecosystems.
