    Black-winged Stilt (juv)

    Known as White-headed Stilt in Opus. This is my last post for a while - we're off to England tomorrow for a couple of weeks, then to Morocco for 10 days birding.

    Confusing names for this species. Black-winged in Australia but White-headed everywhere else.

    Black-winged Stilt (White-headed Stilt)

    Very confusing nomenclature for this species. We call it Black-winged in Australia, but in Opus it is regarded as White-headed. Latin names seem interchangeable as well!

    Actually, this White-headed Stilt has lost a foot, and often stands with its leg in the air. Presumably it alleviates the pain.
