White-tailed Lapwing: 26–29 cm, elegant lapwing with yellow legs, plain white tail, and no crest or facial adornments. Breeds in freshwater marshes and riverine wetlands from Iraq and Iran east to Kazakhstan; winters in South Asia and East Africa. Feeds on aquatic invertebrates. Partially migratory.
