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 fiies , gives vent to its melodious 
love-note, “tra-liddle-tra-liddle-tra-liddle” (Wiglesw., Moritzburg). It in-

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”.
