The White-headed Stilt is fairly widely distributed in Australia. In the bush, even on small ponds, lakes or large water reservoirs black-winged stilts could be seen. Unfortunately, despite the fact that the background was varied which would be a good opportunity to take interesting pictures, they did not allow to approach close enough to take advantage of this situation. Photos were taken, but not as good as this interesting bird deserves. The range of distribution is Australia and New Zealand. Pied stilts are quite distinctive due to their long legs.

My output from this family of birds so far is two species, photographed in Thailand and Srilanka (chickadees). So not much. In Ecuador, I managed to photograph 8 species (antpittas)! They are difficult to photograph and without the help of local guides it would have been impossible. The guides had to spend a lot of time beforehand to make them an attraction for observers, photographers. They live naturally on the bottom of a tropical moist forest. They are small, secretive and difficult to see, let alone photograph.
