Limnodrominae is a subfamily of wading birds commonly known as sandpipers. They are primarily found in wetlands, mudflats, and shorelines, where they forage for invertebrates and small fish. These birds are characterized by their long legs, slender bodies, and pointed bills, which help them probe into the mud for food. Members of the Limnodrominae subfamily include species like the Wilson's Snipe and the Common Snipe. They are known for their distinctive feeding behavior, often seen bobbing their heads as they search for prey. These birds are migratory, traveling long distances between breeding and wintering grounds.
