About this work
Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — In the waters of the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, an adult black-necked stilt wades along the bank. Stilts are identified by a distinct head pattern of black and white, very long red legs, and a straight, very thin bill. They usually produce three or four brown-spotted buff eggs in a shallow depression lined with grass or shell fragments. In the nesting season they are particularly aggressive.
