About These Birds
African Snipe
African Snipe: 25–28 cm, medium-large snipe resident in high-altitude wetlands, bogs, and marshy grassland of eastern and southern Africa from Ethiopia and Sudan to the Cape. Cryptic brown-and-buff streaking. Probes soft mud for invertebrates. Sedentary. Performs display 'drumming' flights with spread tail in breeding season.
Little Curlew
Little Curlew: 28–32 cm, smallest curlew with a relatively short slightly decurved bill. Breeds on boreal Siberian forest-tundra; migrates to northern Australia, where it winters on short dry grassland, airfields, and burnt areas in large flocks. Insectivorous in winter. Long-distance migrant. Unmistakable when in Australia.
