Red wattled Lapwing


I manage to capture this lovely bird this afternoon. when the sun nicely shone to this grammy award winner. Why grammy award winner? because they're one of the best acting skill in bird world. Lapwing nested on the ground, aka no nest. they just drop the egg on the ground and put some pebble to make it more camouflage. Every time their enemy approach eg. monitor lizard, snake even macaq monkey they either pretend they have broken leg or broken wing to ensure their enemy will try chasing them and divert the direction furthur from the nest to safety. this is what i call The grammy award winner in bird world.
