Vanellus miles
Masked Lapwing - or masked plover is a common bird native to Australia. Most of its time is spent foraging the ground in search of insects and worms. They are most common around the edges of wetlands and in other moist, open environments. I came across these lapwings in various locations around Bundaberg Queensland Australia.
