This video shows a black-winged stilt at its nest; amidst coots, black-headed gulls, and other birds.
Albert de Jong reported on 31 July 2015 about the black-winged stilt nesting season in the Netherlands.
2015 was a good year for these mainly South European birds: at least fifteen Dutch nesting couples. Many chicks fledged, which may sometimes be a problem for this species.
