🦉 The green sandpiper (Tringa ochropus)

📚 Tringa (Greek) waterbird the size of a thrush in the texts of Aristotle
📚 ochropus Greek: ōkhros buffy, pous leg

A very strange name for this pinocchio. He's not green. We call him Blackie, or Blackwing. It's a more appropriate name for him, in my opinion.

Occurs very rarely. I have a small lake outside the city where sandpipers and ducks like to relax. And only here you can find this species of sandpipers.

That day I saw about four of these birds, they wandered through the shallow water in search of food. And they caught some small fish.
