About These Birds
White-tailed Lapwing
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. Less aggressive than many lapwings.
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.
