The eastern stint is a medium-sized migratory bird from the sandpiper family. In summer, it lives in the steppes and semi-deserts of Asia, and in winter it flies to Australia and Southeast Asia.
The eastern stint differs from related species by its long wings and a special black pattern on the male's chest during the breeding season. It helps control insect populations in steppes and indicates the condition of open natural areas.
