WHAT DOES AVOSET MEAN IN ENGLISH?

avoset

Avocet

The four species of avocets /ˈævəsɛt/ are a genus, Recurvirostra, of waders in the same avian family as the stilts. Avocets have long legs and long, thin, upcurved bills which they sweep from side to side when feeding in the brackish or saline wetlands they prefer. The plumage is pied, sometimes also with some red. Members of this genus have webbed feet and readily swim. Their diet consists of aquatic insects and other small creatures. They nest on the ground in loose colonies. In estuarine settings they may feed on exposed bay muds or mudflats. The pied avocet is the emblem of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds. The four species, all in the genus Recurvirostra, are: ▪ Pied avocet, Recurvirostra avosetta ▪ American avocet, Recurvirostra americana ▪ Red-necked avocet, Recurvirostra novaehollandiae ▪ Andean avocet, Recurvirostra andina In a large colony they are aggressively defensive and chase off any other species of birds that try to nest among or near them. That causes the annoyed remark "Avocet : Exocet" from some British birdwatchers.
