Description
The Southern Masked Lapwing (vanellus miles) is a ground-dwelling bird native to eastern Australia, New Zealand, New Guinea and Indonesia. It is sometimes known as the spur-winged plover. It makes its home in mudflats and marshes, on beaches and alongside estuaries.
I photographed this one fishing in an estuary in northern New South Wales.
