Dunlin, a small bird with a big heart! These dunlins are like nature's little acrobats, often found near coastlines, wetlands, and marshy areas.
They have a charming, mottled appearance with brown and white feathers.

They travel thousands of miles from their breeding grounds in the Arctic to their wintering spots in places like Europe, Africa, and Asia.
It's like they're birdie globetrotters, going on grand adventures! These birds are known for their high-pitched calls and their friendly behavior when they gather in large flocks.
So, the next time you're near a beach or a wetland, keep an eye out for these charming birds.
They're like the spirited travelers of the bird world, adding a touch of wonder and excitement to your nature explorations.
