Hello all,
We need some help with this plover identification.
The two photos were taken in Mkhuze Game Reserve during our trip to SA in the past September. Our impression is towards Lesser black-winged (Senegal) lapwing. It looks slender, the white in the forehead is not too extensive and the legs are blackish.
However, non-br Greater Black-Winged also have black legs, and we are not sure about the amount of black border between the breast and belly.
Any comments will be much appreciated.
Many thanks
