In Wikipedia the Spur-winged plover in the souther and eastern states (sub-species of the Masked Lapwing) has a black neck-stripe and smaller wattles. The spur-winged plover in the northern hemisphere is a totally different bird. In "The Hand Guide to Birds of New Zealand it however only refers to the Spur-winged Plover. Mmmm, is mine the Masked Lapwing or the Spur-winged plover - I'm curious now .....Baruchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05349100299537927380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1785795575454502378.post-66260220129587991602009-05-31T23:06:01.669-07:002009-05-31T23:06:01.669-07:00Gorgeous in flight captures Arija!Gorgeous in flight captures Arija!Larry Jordanhttp://thebirdersreport.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1785795575454502378.post-46614827892405034472009-05-28T19:39:35.476-07:002009-05-28T19:39:35.476-07:00Flight images are not easy.
