English term

boot

English to Polish Science Zoology Birds
W moim tekście "boot" to gatunek ptaka zimującego w Egipcie, w Delcie Nilu. Niestety nigdzie nie mogę znaleźć jego tłumaczenia. Poniżej podaję fragment tekstu:

Located in the Nile Delta, Lake Burullus is a protected area that requires special permits to visit. The surrounding marches make it an ideal spot to spot Wigeons, Shovellers, Boots, Whiskered Terns and Pochards during the winter.

Z góry dziękuję za pomoc!

Cf.:

"Lake Burullus

Less disturbed by land reclamation than other lakes in the Delta, this lake and its surrounding marshes are an important wintering area for Wigeons, Shovellers, Pochards, Coots, and Whiskered Terns, which may be counted in the thousands."
