Description
Photo taken at Bolsa Chica near Los Angeles. Scientific name: Recurvirostra americana. The American avocet is a large wader in the avocet and stilt family. The avocet spends much of its time foraging in shallow water or on mud flats, often sweeping its bill from side to side in water as it seeks its crustacean and insect prey.
