Banded stilt
Banded Stilt (Cladorhynchus
leucocephalus) is a nomadic stilt from Australia. It belongs to the
monotypical genus Cladorhynchus. It gets its name from the red-brown
breast band found on breeding adults, but this is mottled or entirely
absent in non-breeding adults and juveniles. Its remaining plumage is
pied and the eyes are dark brown. They breed whenever the water
conditions are suitable and lay 3-4 white, brown or black eggs on a
scrape.
