The green sandpiper (Tringa ochropus)
The bird is about the size of a thrush or starling. You can meet him on the banks of rivers, lakes, as well as sometimes in forest swamps. It feeds on aquatic insects, worms and larvae, small mollusks, as well as fish whitebaits.
The most interesting thing is that he nests in the nests of thrushes, crows and jays, and also in hollows or nests of squirrels! When, as mostly, sandpipers prefer to nest in dense thickets at the rivers, and not in the trees.
Despite his long legs, he rather quickly moves through shallow water, and runs very quickly and ridiculously.
Arriving from wintering ... honestly I don’t know when. I see him only in the middle of July, but I think like the rest of the waders, he arrives in Siberia at the end of April.
