Breeding Ecology of the Pied Avocet, Recurvirosrta avosetta (Charadriformes, Recurvirostidae), in Tiffech Lake (Souk Ahras, Northeastern Algeria)
In this study, the breeding ecology of the Pied Avocet (Recurvirostra avosetta) was studied during the 2017 breeding season in Tiffech Lake Wetland (868 m in elevation), Northeastern Algeria. Avocets arrived, at Tiffech Lake in early February and usually spent a few days in flocks before dispersing...
