GAMBIA FEB 2019
===============
MEDIUM sized, sturdy, pale grey-streaked wader, with greenish legs. A long distance migrant to the Gambia, from October to February, have heard some stay all year round. Favours extensive areas of mud, along mangrove edges, the shoreline and freshwater swamps. Feeds normally singly, probing often with head submerged, for fish fry, small crabs, worms and surface insects. Good to see them in the Gambia and the U.K.
