Ruff bird (Philomachus pugnax) is distributed across various wetland habitats throughout Pakistan. This distribution includes coastal areas, inland marshes, lakes, rivers, and other wetland ecosystems across the country.
In terms of behavior, Ruffs are known for their elaborate courtship displays, particularly among males competing for mates. These displays involve intricate aerial maneuvers, vocalizations, and visual cues to attract females. Outside of the breeding season, Ruffs are often seen foraging in shallow waters, probing the mud for invertebrates and small prey.
