Amazing Black-winged Stilt nest
The Black-winged Stilt (Himantopus himantopus) typically nests in shallow wetlands, including lakes, marshes, and coastal lagoons. Their nests are simple, often just shallow scrapes on the ground lined with grass, leaves, and other vegetation. These nests are usually situated in open areas with good visibility to spot approaching predators. Both parents share the duties of incubating the eggs and caring for the chicks, which are precocial and able to leave the nest and forage shortly after hatching.
