Field Notes

Description:

This bird, or very similar ones, go under different names in each country. I will check to see if they are all the same species or not. The Asian Yellow-wattled Lapwing is different as is the African Wattled Lapwing but the Masked Lapwing of Australia is the same bird as this one.

Habitat:

Botanical gardens
