Why it matters
The Crowned Lapwing is a distinctive ground-dwelling bird recognized by the black crown outlined in white that gives the species its name. These birds are prized by observers for their characteristic broad wings and pointed tails, which facilitate their quick, agile flight patterns across the open grasslands and savannas of sub-Saharan Africa.
