Masked Lapwing Photos

Vanellus miles

One of those birds that's SO unique compared to birds back in the US, that when you first see it, you do a double take.  Then you realize they are one of the most common species and you find them practically everywhere you go in Australia.  That's the fun of birding somewhere new...even the common birds are magical.
