Great Stone-curlew/ Great Thick-knee
The Near Threatened Great Stone-Curlew/ Great Thick-knee (Esacus recurvirostris) is an odd looking, large wader & a resident breeder in tropical southern Asia from India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh into South-east Asia. They’re found on the banks of flowing rivers and lakes with rocky or sandy shores & usually seen standing still on shore, though they can be quite shy, often flushing even at a distance.
