It is understood that this small bird is a spoon-billed sandpiper, nicknamed "small spoon", the body length is generally 14-16 cm, because the mouth is like a small black spoon and named.
Spoon-billed sandpipers have a unique way of foraging, using their mouths to sweep back and forth in water or sediment, foraging for insects, crustaceans and other small animals. Because of its small size, it is difficult to spot among the many migratory birds, so it is also very difficult to record photography. At present, there are only more than 600 spoon-billed sandpipers worldwide, which is a critically endangered species.
