Where's the grass gone?

We've just had a wet and cold day all day - 25mls (1") of rain. Spotted this masked lapwing plover wading through a big puddle in the park.

They are really dumb birds sometimes aren't they. Two made a nest in the middle of a roundabout at Salamander Bay and then a few weeks ago I saw two just standing in the middle of the road watching the traffic go by.

We’ve had so much rain. So many lakes closed due to high water. But later this year we will be thankful when we aren’t in serious water restrictions. I like this plover just kind of standing there. Lol.
