species. Occasionally it will settle daintily, but with some difficulty, on the top 

 of a neighbouring stake, but it is rarely seen except on the ground, where, 

 immediately after settling, it raises its wings high and folds them nicely to its 

 sides. Free from anxiety it frequently, as it flies, gives vent to its melodious 

 love-note, "tra-liddle-tra-liddle-tra-liddle" (Wiglesw., Moritzburg). It in- 

 habits swampy ground by lakes, rivers and the sea-shore, feeding upon small 

 molluscs, worms, insects, etc. 



Dr. Sharpe remarks (34): "The Eastern Redshanks from Central Asia and 

 India are much more richly coloured in the breeding season than European in- 

 dividuals, being much more rufous, and having the inner median coverts rufous 

 with distinct blackish bars. The European specimens appear to be always more 

 dusky, both in winter and summer plumage".
