Green sandpiper

Latin name Tringa ochropus

Family
Sandpipers and allies (Scolopacidae)

Overview
A very contrasting wader which looks like a large house martin in flight. Its dark, almost black upperparts, pale underparts and white rump are distinctive. It frequently bobs up and down when standing. It often appears nervous and will fly off with a low zig-zagging flight when disturbed.
