Lapwing Plover

Cat. No. GD11710

Stay Back! I just had laid some eggs and I'm very protective of them. I make "keer- kick-ki-ki-ki" sounds and become aggressive if you get to close to me during nesting season. Any other time of the year, I'm calm and you can watch me all you want. My diet includes worms, insects and other small invertebrates...Yum!

Here are some interesting facts about myself I thought you might like to know:

Scientists call me: Vanellus miles

Real size ranges from: 350mm-380mm

I usually live: in open areas such as swamps and grasslands

Breeding: occurs in the wet seasons or after local rains. We make nests on the ground, and it is comprised of a scrape in the ground lined with grass and debris. Pretty simple, huh.
