Very nice spotting!
Awesome capture. You either have a lot of patience, or very cooperative subjects. =D
At first, I also considered suggesting European. However, she seems skinnier with longer legs. Also, something about her beak looks different (ie. longer), too. From looking at other pictures of Europeans, their bodies look beefier, with shorter beaks and legs. The legs look darker/more black, too.
In any event, she's simply gorgeous. And she's definitely a Golden Plover. :)
Very nice spotting.
This is my all-time favorite (migratory) bird. We have one that frequents our front yard. She comes daily and hangs out in front of our house. She even returned after breeding season in Alaska.
That is awesome! Fearlessness like a Lionfish. Usually, once they sense that I can see them, I have to chase them down at full-speed. That's assuming they don't just bury themselves.
Great find! I just love these little (juvenile) Rockmover wrasses!! I see them occasionally in while snorkeling. Red ones, brown ones, and bright green ones. I like how they drift in the current like seaweed, and bury themselves in the sand/gravel.
