The U curved is a head joint for the standard model flute that has been curved into a U shape so the instrument is more compact. This is so people with a small body frame can hold the instrument without having to reach beyond his or her capabilities.
Waders are a style of waterproof gear designed to allow people to stand in relatively deep water without getting wet. There are two basic styles, hip waders and chest waders, and when they are worn with a warm insulating layer, they can be extremely useful in cold, wet places. For some jobs, this gear may be required while at work, to ensure that employees are protected from the elements.
Waders, called shorebirds in North America (where wader is used to refer to long-legged wading birds such as storks and herons), are members of the order Charadriiformes, excluding the more marine web-footed seabird groups. There are about 210 species, most of which are associated with wetland or coastal environments.
