Terek Sandpiper is a small mobile bird of the snipe family. Lives by the river valleys, so that there are puddles, old channels, mud banks. It feeds on insect larvae buried in silt. If it is possible to get large prey from the earth, it carries it to the water, rinses it from dirt and only then swallows it.
Morodunka is a small mobile bird of the snipe family. Lives near river valleys, so that there are puddles around, old channels, mud bars. It feeds on insect larvae buried in silt. If it is possible to get large prey from the ground, then it carries it to the water, rinses it off the dirt and only then swallows it.

January 19, 2020 - Terek Sandpiper (Xenus cinereus)
Breeding in northern Eurasia, these sandpipers winter along the coasts of eastern and southern Africa, the Middle East, South Asia, Southeast Asia, and Australia. They forage alone, eating insects, crustaceans, mollusks, and seeds. Often breeding in colonies, they build shallow scrape nests near water, lining them with plants and debris. Females incubate the eggs while males guard the nests, both care for the chicks.

This bird spends the summers in Russia - where fossils of it have been found - and then breeds along the coasts of the Indian Ocean 
Tumblr media
Physical Description: The Terek Sandpiper is, in general, similar in appearance to the usual sandpipers - a medium sized bird, with long thin legs for wading, and a long, thin, pointed beak for probing in sand for food. The terek Sandpiper in particular is slightly larger than the Common Sandpiper, at 25 centimeters in length; it has a weakly curved bill, and is colored taupe on its back and white on its belly, with a black stripe across its eye. They also change color based on breeding or not, with the birds in the non-breeding season being duller in color than the birds during the breeding season - this is changed through seasonal molts. The Terek Sandpiper does not differ based on sex.
Diet: These birds feed mainly on midges and seeds during the breeding season; on the off season, this bird feeds on insects, molluscs, crustaceans, spiders, and worms.
Behavior: The Terek Sandpiper will feed by rapidly running across the watery sand, pecking at the surface of the water or sand and then running away immediately afterwards. It’ll probe deeper into either to grab food, and will also chase prey on the land. It feeds mainly during the low tide, wading at the water’s edge while probing around for food. These birds do forage together, calling to each other with varying whistles that go per-rrrr-eeeee over and over again. They also make softer songs while flying, and louder flutey wee-we calls in alarm.

The Terek Sandpiper migrates, moving south starting in July and then in October, and then migrating back north from March through May. They tend to stay within the same longitudinal line, just migrating south to a place along the Indian Ocean Coast for warmer habitat during the winter. They then migrate back up throughout Russia in the summer for the breeding season. They breed form Jay through July in large colonies, though closer to Europe they’ll often nest alone. They are monogamous, mating with one mate for their whole lives, and the parents work together to carve a shallow depression in the ground and then line it with grass and debris for the nest. Usually, this nest is made near a source of water. They only lay one clutch per breeding season, which usually consists of about four eggs. These eggs hatch after a little more than three weeks, after both sexes incubate. The chicks are grey and fluffy, and they fledge after two weeks; these birds can live up to 15 years in the wild.
Ecosystem: The Terek Sandpiper lives near the coast and in lowland valleys near sources of water, especially floodplains near tall grasses and scrub forests near taiga and tundra in the north. Their coastal, non-breeding habitats are usually on mudflats and estuaries, as well as near coral reefs, sandy beaches, and sandbars. They can also be found in coastal swamps.
Other: Tens of thousands of these birds are known, and they are not considered to be endangered.

The Terek Sandpiper’s forehead is a cliff dressed in feathers. The bird would still be headbutted out of a “Mr. Steep Forehead” contest. The Pied Avocet, also a Chennai migrant, is enough to dash its hopes. Placed next to the Avocet’s forehead, Mount Thor with its daunting cliff is just a hopelessly flat-lined ECG lead. The Terek Sandpiper’s more attention-grabbing feature is its upcurved bill.…

#WaderWednesday Best sightings during this weekend's Wader Conservation World Watch #WCWW6 for @wader.quest's yearly count initiative were an interestingly-plumaged Bar-tailed Godwit, the first Terek Sandpiper of the summer has arrived, & this quite confiding Three-banded Plover, foraging in a small pool after some recent rains. https://www.instagram.com/p/B4h_faoAdCB/?igshid=w1m7j5w9jtlb
