The red knot or just knot (Calidris canutus) is a medium-sized shorebird which breeds in tundra and the Arctic Cordillera in the far north of Canada, Europe, and Russia. Monterey Bay, California.
This chunky shorebird has a rather anonymous look in winter plumage, but is unmistakable in spring, when it wears robin-red on its chest and then is inconspicuous on the tundras. Red knots are small, brownish birds that fly more than 9,000 miles from south to north every spring and repeat the trip in reverse every autumn. Red knots are molluscivores, meaning they eat hard-shelled mollusks (mussels, clams) whole – shell and all!
