Double-striped Thick-knee
Hesperoburhinus bistriatus
The double-striped thick-knee (Hesperoburhinus bistriatus) is a stone-curlew, a group of waders in the family Burhinidae. The vernacular name refers to the prominent joints in the long greenish-grey legs, and bistriatus to the two stripes of the head pattern.
