White-headed stilt
[edit]- ... that the white-headed stilt sometimes feigns a leg injury to draw intruders away from its chicks?

- Comment: I expanded this from a stub because an image of the bird was just about to be featured on the main page as today's Featured Picture. That is why I have not added the image to this nomination.

Article expanded 5X since 11 June. Written in neutral tone & no sign of copyvio or close paraphrasing. Hook fact is cited to a digitised 19th century description and doesn't seem to appear in modern sources (although it is given for a relative the Himantopus mexicanus knudseni here).— Rod talk 17:14, 15 June 2014 (UTC)
