Quirky and Fearless - Meet the Masked Lapwing, Australia's Feathered Daredevil!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by Don Hadden, we are introduced to the fascinating world of the Masked Lapwing, also known as the Spur-winged Plover. This audacious bird species can be found throughout northern, central, and eastern Australia, as well as in southern New Guinea and New Zealand. With its striking black-and-white plumage and distinctive yellow facial mask, this particular subspecies hails from northern Australia. It thrives in open grasslands with short grasses – from bustling urban areas to remote outback stations. The snapshot takes us to Parry Lagoons near Wyndham in Western Australia where our feathered friend is seen confidently wading through shimmering waters. Unfazed by its surroundings, this masked lapwing showcases its natural flair for life on both land and water. With a mischievous glint in its eye (or so it seems), this avian daredevil fearlessly navigates its habitat while keeping an ever-watchful eye for potential threats or tasty morsels beneath the surface. Don Hadden's incredible photography allows us a glimpse into the vibrant wildlife that calls Australasia home. So let's celebrate these charismatic creatures like our masked lapwing – reminding us all to embrace life with boldness and a touch of playfulness!
