Little Stint – the tiny traveler
One of the smallest waders you can spot along our shores. At just 13–15 cm long, this delicate bird is a master of long-distance travel — migrating thousands of kilometers between Arctic breeding grounds and warmer wintering areas.
🔍 How to recognise it?
Tiny size, with quick, darting movements.
