I can relate to the masked face lapwings, Chris!! I am always a bit amused watching their antics. They lay their eggs in such crazy places, but then they protect their young with vengeance!!! They are not afraid of anyone!! Great capture and title!!

Thank you all. You should see the poor thing sitting on the nest now, it is cold, wet & windy but she's still sitting there. #9712085

A fantastic photo story. I am amazed that the birds would be so protective and not leave the nest. Hope you get pictures of the hatchlings. #9745339
