Their feet and legs are blush gray
and their bill is black.
For a bird that is so attractive
and graceful in the water, the Avo-
set seems sloppy and careless when
building a nest. 1t is poorly con-
structed of rushes, weed stems. and
water grasses, and placed on wet
ground. In it are laid three or
four eggs.
You aren't so likely to find the
Avocets tending their brood as YOU
are to see them wading in the wat
er. Sometimes they step off the
edge of the bank into their pool
but often they come in from
flight and lights where they are 60
ing to wade. Before settling down
to hunt for food, they stretch and
wave their wing above their backs
and bob their heads.
Now and then, the Avocet pauses
in whatever he is doing and excit-
edly calls, ''Pee-eek, pee-eek, pleek-
leek, pleek-leek, peeeeelk" He can
be heard for some distance. be-
cause the call is loud, clear. and

to enter the United States some
where along the Gulf of Mexico.
He may remain in. Texas, or he
may alight anywhere along the
way up to Canada, but he seldom
goes east of the Mississippi River.
His stopping place is always
along the borders of a shallow lake,
a pond, or a grassy, muddy pool.
There he can wade, hunt for food
in the water, and build a nest on
some swampy spot.
The Avocet knows how to swim,
too. but he never goes far from the
bank. He would rather stay in
shallow water, where his feet can
easily touch bottom. There he can
gracefully pick his way along the
fringes of the pool.
With each step, the Avocet holds
his head near the water and sweeps
his long bill from side to side
across the bottom of the pool Stir
ring through the mud, he finds tiny
water creatures whicn he likes to
eat. If the pickings are slim there,
he raises his head and watches for
insects on the surface.
The Avocet is we'll built for this
kind of life. He is a fairly large
bird, measuring sixteen to twenty
inches from his bill to his tail. His
legs are long, and so is his bill,
which is slender and curves upward
toward the tip. You would know
at a glance, says the National
Wildlife Federation, that he is
made for wading, and that his bill
is a good tool for scooping around
in the mud.
Another conspicuous thing about
Avocets is their color. Both males
and females have black and white
wings. The rest of their feathers
are white, except for the head and
neck, which are a light, pinkish
brown during the summer season.
