"The stilt-walkers" and "the wading birds" are English equivalents of the French phrase leséchassiers.
Specifically, the feminine/masculine plural definite article les means "the". The masculine noun échassiers translates "stilt-walkers" or "wading birds" according to context. The pronunciation will be "ley-zey-sha-syey"* in French.
*The sound is similar to that in the English exclamation "Hey!"
