About These Birds
Tawny-throated Dotterel
Tawny-throated Dotterel (Oreopholus ruficollis) is a slender 27–30 cm plover of Andean and Patagonian grasslands. Pale sandy-brown above; tawny-orange throat; white eyebrow; long-legged and upright. Inhabits short-grass puna, Patagonian steppe, and coastal dunes from Peru south to Tierra del Fuego.
Spot-breasted Lapwing
Spot-breasted Lapwing: 28–30 cm, Ethiopian highland endemic lapwing with a black head and breast spotted white, and red legs. Restricted to high-altitude moorland and montane grassland above 1,800 m in Ethiopia. Insectivorous. Sedentary; rare and little-studied. Declining due to overgrazing and agricultural encroachment.
