Field Notes

Description:

I saw this bird at Nagarhole tiger reserve in Karnataka. The Red Wattled
Lapwing was waddling around squawking around and he squawked loud.
He sure was pretty annoying.

Habitat:

You can normally find him waddling around near trees and flying a little bit
but not all the time.

Yeah, they were SUPER annoying. But also really cute...

Nice shot! Did you find him annoying because he (or she) was loud?
