  • Compared to their body size, Black-necked Stilts have the longest legs of any bird! Lab photographer Gerrit Vyn shares a remarkable flock of stilts he filmed in Louisiana at Audubon's Paul J. Rainey Reserve.

    I am a wood carver and have a project where I have to carve Shore birds of the Florida Nature Coast for a mobile to hang in their sky light. I have seen hundreds of pictures and even the birds here in the Homosassa River but I need the measurements of the average wing span. That way I can get it proportionate to the other birds. By the way I am totally amazed at your film and the proximity to the flock. Very good film!

    Thanks for this excellent video! I've got some great footage of these guys protecting their nesting grounds in a small flooded farm canal in the Arizona desert. Gotta get it up soon. Your vid inspired me. Thanks again!

    Just beautiful. I'm hoping to see a few of these beauties on their way through central Illinois this spring. I did not find out until last summer that they do stop by in flooded fields here.

    Marshland of San Pablo Bay (northern most wet section of San Francisco Bay proper) also offers great views of formidable numbers of this species wintering over. Access via Hiway 37 between Vallejo & Novato. Info at San Pablo National Wildlife Refuge. Wintering raptors likewise in abundance (eg. Skagg's Island). Thanks for great video.

      Their flight is amazingly fast. I was at a marsh and I saw a flock of 50 adult black winged stilts attack crows that invaded the colony, needless to say with all the screaming the crows left immediately.

    I visited a marsh today and got fussed at by many stilts. They were nesting on the levy where I was walking. Lovely video.
