Stilt Bird

| View Cart ⇗ | Info

A species of wading birds. It is so called because its legs, in proportion to the size of the body, exceed in length those of any other bird. The body is about the size of that of a snipe, while the bare part of the legs measures eight inches, thus enabling it to run with remarkable rapidity.
