Sunday, April 26th, 2026 at 10:44:03 PM · 2026/Yolo Bypass Wetlands
Two Black-necked Stilts stand in shallow wetland waters surrounded by tall reeds and grasses. These wading birds display their characteristic black upperparts, white underparts, and notably long red legs. The birds are positioned at different distances from the camera, both in shallow water with their reflections visible on the calm surface. The wetland habitat shows typical marsh vegetation with dried stalks protruding from the water, creating a natural feeding environment for these shorebirds. The lighting suggests early morning or late afternoon conditions, with soft natural light illuminating the scene.
