These things defy logic and the good word of the Bible. Ruffs are migratory shorebirds that are widespread across northern Eurasia including parts of Russia and much of northern Siberia. They migrate south in the non-breeding season towards Africa into bits of southern europe and reach as far down as the country of South Africa, sometimes in one trip. Are we sure these arent bird terminators? They even travel to the shores of southeast Asia and recently have started to frequent the shores of Alaska and Washington. Sightings have been seen in Canada, the Great Lakes region and bizzarely, Florida. Knowing Florida though, this should not be surprising.
They forage to eat crustaceans, insects (especially flies), worms and small fish among other foodstuffs.
