Common Ringed Plover. Charadrius hiaticula. It is a small species, 17-19.5 cm in size, with a wingspan of 35-41 cm. Insects, crustaceans and worms make up the species' diet. It has a distinctive feeding style of "run, stop and lean forward". In order to protect their young, when danger approaches around the nest, they move away from the nest by feigning a broken wing. In this way, they drive away those who have eyes on the young from the nest and try to draw attention to themselves. |
