The elegant Avocet Recurvirostra avocetta is a striking bird that can be found in various locations across Norfolk during the summer months. With its distinctive black and white plumage, this Pied avocet stands out against the backdrop of Titchwell RSPB Reserve. Dating back to 1900, artist Charles Whymper captured the beauty of these birds in his painting titled "Common Avocet (Recurvirostra avocetta), Common Stilt (Himantopus melanopterus)". This artwork serves as a testament to their timeless allure. During breeding season, you may witness the Avocet Recurvirostra avocetta diligently turning its eggs at nests on Scrape Minsmere RSPB Reserve or incubating them at Minsmere RSPB Reserve. These nesting behaviors highlight their dedication to ensuring the survival of their offspring. In Salthouse Norfolk, you might spot an Avocet Recurvirostra avocetta perched on its nest, fiercely protecting its precious eggs. The sight of these protective parents is both heartwarming and awe-inspiring. As dawn breaks over Titchwell RSPB Reserve in April, you can observe these graceful birds feeding on insects and small crustaceans. Their slender bills are perfectly adapted for capturing prey from shallow waters.
