Why it matters
The Terek sandpiper (*Xenus cinereus*) is known for its distinctive upturned bill and energetic foraging style, which helps it exploit mudflats across its vast migratory range. Its narrow wings and pointed tail are specialized adaptations for long-distance travel between its northern breeding grounds and wintering sites in Africa, Asia, and Australia.
