Black-winged Stilt - This wader has striking red legs and really fascinating to watch as they search for food from sand or shallow water. The diet is mainly insects and crustaceans. Usually observed in areas of shallow water, fresh or brackish, with margins of sand or mud. Usually on lagoons estuary's or delta areas. These roosting birds were photographed by Jake at Pera Marsh Salgados Portugal
