- Cover photo description:
- Red-wattled lapwing (Vanellus indicus), also known as did-he-do-it bird, is an Asian lapwing or large plover, a wader in the family Charadriidae. Like other lapwings they are also ground-dwelling birds that are incapable of perching. They have characteristic loud alarm call. Usually seen in pairs or small groups and usually not far from water they sometimes form large aggregations in the non-breeding season (winter). They nest on ground and lay three to four camouflaged eggs. Adults stay near the nest and fly around, diving at potential predators while calling noisily. The cryptically patterned chicks hatch and immediately follow their parents to feed, hiding by lying low on the ground or in the grass when threatened.
