Tringa nebularia
The greenshank is a medium-sized wading bird. They have long legs and a bill that is slightly upturned - this is helpful to distinguish it from other wading birds. They are usually seen in small groups or on their own.
Greenshanks have dark backs with white underparts, long green legs and dark beaks.
Their diets mainly consist of fish, snails and worms.
