Masked Lapwing




Shhhhhh ...


Do you think she's found me?


I'm out of here ... she has a horny spur that projects from the wrist of each wing! Really!!

Where do you live that you are in close proximity to these beautiful birds? You also photograph them so professionally!

Why a yellow mask? Is it for a Masquerade? A Yellow Party?

I love the yellow face, does seem like a mask, maybe she's imitating the sun. She would have been a good pic for citrus on IF..

I wonder why it's masked.

Thank you Ces :) I live in Sydney, Australia. These are city birds ... there are a lot more in isolated locations.

You can wear any coloured mask you wish Joy Eliz! I see yours is the same as mine - invisible

We are in the SAME place MerlinPrincesse! The Lagoon - remember?

SCAT CAT Mademoiselle Princesse!!!

HO HUM, that's three saying I should post images to IF in one week. Thanks for the thought Hardwax ...

It's masked because it is like BATMAN modroom! WHY has no one given me sympathy for having to run away from its projectile horny spurs!?!

I don't like it. It's got a fried egg on it's face.
