These are both such interesting birds! I have to look through my photos from my birding adventure, but I think that I also have some photos of red necked avocets. I think these wading birds are so interesting! Love your shots!
Beautiful! Wish we had the Red-necked Avocets here. They're a very striking bird. We have American Avocets...actually I posted one today from my archives. We do get the Black-necked Stilts here. They're marked differently than your Stilts.
thanks for visiting Snap Happy Birding, and for leaving a comment; I can still see them. Now both my blogs are resting in idle mode. It was time to give other things priority, even though I miss my regular blogging and the feedback that came my way over the years. Take care.
I can see how it came by its name! Lovely long legs and great photos too.
ReplyDeletelove those legs. wink. wink. ( :
ReplyDeleteI like those red heads. Happy Birthday same day as TOH's.

ReplyDeleteThere's something very distinguished looking about these birds, as if they are wearing formal clothes for a black-tie affair.
