Northern Lapwing

The northern lapwing is a wader of open farmland and meadows and usually breeds on grassland.

However, from October 2023 to February 2024, we often had abundant rainfall in Belgium with flooding here and there. At the moment, nature is still very wet, which does not make it easy for the lapwing to find a dry nesting site.
