The black-necked stilt is a wading bird found in wetlands and shallow waters across North and South America. It has a distinctive black and white plumage, with long pink legs and a thin black bill. They feed on small aquatic invertebrates and fish, using their long legs to wade through the water and their long bill to probe the mud for food. They are known for their high-stepping walk and are often seen in pairs or small groups. The black-necked stilt is a common and widespread species, but habitat loss and degradation pose a threat to their populations.
