"The Dunlin is the commonest and most well known small wader encountered in its breeding and overwintering grounds, with a global population of about 5 million birds."

"The haunting, wild, evocative call of the curlew drifts across the misty marshes, tideways and moors it inhabits. With its conspicuous downturned beak and large size, this is the bird most people think of when they hear the word wader."

"The Bar Tailed Godwit, which has the scientific name, Limosa lapponica, belongs to the Scolopacidae family, which includes sandpipers and other wading birds."

"The Avocet or Pied Avocet is a conspicuous black and white wading bird, with the scientific name Recurvirostra avosetta, which is placed in the same family as the Stilts, the Recurvirostridae."

"The Scarlet Ibis (scientific name Eudocimus ruber) is a startlingly red coloured wading bird with a long, down-curved bill."

"The Glossy Ibis (scientific name Plegadis falcinellus) is a dark coloured wading bird with a long, down-curved bill."

"The Sacred Ibis (scientific name Threskiornis aethiopicus) is an African representative of the ibises (Threskiornithidae), a family of wading birds with webbed feet, related to the herons, storks and pelicans."
