Thank you Ashish :) Thanks Jeanette & Sachin too :)
Some info on its spurs..

No it's a spur on the wing Ashish! These are a swooping bird, so I'm not sure if it may be used in defense.
Lovely bird, didn't notice the spur before... Thanks to Ashish :)
wow,, that's great, Ashish,
This is fantastic spotting Leanne.. a neat lesson..!!
Oh.. just checked...
These spurs gave them another ID- Spur-winged Plover
