Lapwing (peewit)

Thanks Maria I'm glad to be aboard, if you'll parden the pun.

I'm amazed myself, they flock on a local airstrip, there are numerous standing signs on boundary indicating one thing or another for the pilots. Needless to say they seem to like the fact there is shelter found by these signs. Luckily for me the boundary is right next to the road. I've marked the spot to the inch on the map so you'll see what I mean.

And thanks Patty I love them too! :D

Wonderful spotting - a belated welcome to Project Noah!

Lovely lapwing and great picture Chris! I love its standing feathers =)
