About "Pied-billed avocet with young"

by Rinnie Wijnstra

About the artwork

The bird forages walking in mud and shallow water with head swishing back and forth. Its food consists of freshwater plankton, marine centipedes, snails and the like. The avocet is a good swimmer. Breeding takes place in colonies, on sandy plains, marshy meadows, reclamation areas located near fresh, salt or brackish water. The bird is very territorial, aggressive towards intruders and lives in groups.

The avocet prefers to forage in water with a thick layer of mud, which it mows through with its bill slightly open. As soon as a centipede or other animal living vertically in the mud gets between the two parts of the bill, it closes. Foraging takes up most of the day.

Reproduction
The nest is on the ground in a hole, deposited with shells and grass stalks. The clutch consists of four sand-coloured or grey-green eggs with dark spots. When cold, the young are warmed by one of the parents. In doing so, the parent bird goes through its 'knees' after which the young crawl under its wings. This makes it look like a avocet with many legs.
