Misc Animals from Greece - Spot_the_birdie.jpg


This one is sort of special
I saw a nice spurwinged lapwing
close to the road - but when I got
my telelens it had moved a long
distance away. Yet I wanted a proof I saw the bird,
and this is the result ;-)

Spur-winged Plover (Vanellus spinosus) is a lapwing, a group of largish waders in the family Charadriidae. It breeds around the eastern Mediterranean, and in a wide band from sub-Saharan west Africa to Arabia. The Greek and Turkish breeders are migratory, but other populations are resident.
