I was so lucky to see this bird, but difficult for a photo. Reeds first, then two masked lapwings came and landed in front of it and then the camera couldn't see it! Only seen it 4 times in my life in my local area.

Thanks Sam. I think its only the first photo. I think I reported one on the causeway early this year but it was too quick for a piccy.
