American Avocet

(Recurvirostra americana)

Description:

I found Avocets were quite at home in the company of Black-Necked Stilts, while on the freshwater wetlands. Hurricane Harvey, in 2017, hit Port Aransas (Texas) hard. The beginning stages of rebuilding the Port Aransas Nature Center’s boardwalk began with a 1500′ footpath, but there are plans to extend it to about three miles.
