RE: Bird Quiz

Oh and the Stoopster beats Kingfisher to the answer!

Jamiewade = 35 Points
The Stoop = 20 points

And another: A lot rarer than the last!

That may well be but these aren't. (i presume you still live in America?) I will try and stick to British/european stuff after this one.
It is an American wader. There is one as we speak at Bowling green Marsh, Devon. There are photos of this bird on my website under 2005 rarity gallery if you want to cheat!

Nope.

Clue: It has a 'short billed' cousin.
