The little stint , is a very small wader. It breeds in arctic Europe and Asia, and is a long-distance migrant, wintering south to Africa and south Asia.ts small size, fine dark bill, dark legs and quicker movements distinguish this species from all waders except the other dark-legged stints.Food is small invertebrates picked off the mud.This photo is so beautiful because it showcases two activities of a stint in a single frame with spectacular blue background ,i felt so satisfied after this shot ....view and enjoy
