In 2017, the National Stud had 28 nests, whether on specially constructed platforms, on rooftops or in trees, and the town of Avenches one nest. After a month's incubation, the young hatch at the end of April and take their first flight two months later. Easily observable at the Swiss National Stud, it is not uncommon to come across these slender waders in groups looking for food in the surrounding fields.
