[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note [Spanish]
(Vanellus chilensis) vulgar Name: tero, teru-teru (Argentina and Uruguay);chorlitejo de alas punteagudas (Spain); quero-quero (Brasil);Southern lapwing (English). This bird lives in open areas where it is fed on small animals, also it adapts well to urban environments where it finds parks of good size, fields of soccer, gardens, etc. nest in the ground and put of 3 to 4 speckled eggs. They are monogamous and they protile his nest jealously threatening threatening flights and getting to hurt in last instance with spurs that it has in his wings. When something threatens its nest one of individuals d the pair attracts with shouts and moving near the possible predator to turn aside it of its young or eggs. Its shout resembles to the one of its vulgar name, teru-teru. This bird I photographed it in zoo Temaiken, with camera Zenith, lens of 300 mm. I believe that is useful the reference of livios (quero-quero).

Hernan, é a primeira vez que vejo esta ave descansando.

Não é fácil fotografá-las, pois basta que tentemos nos aproximar e elas vão logo embora.

Talvez eu não tentasse uma aproximação tão grande, mas isso é só uma opinião.

Gosto da imagem, que mostra bem os detalhes desta bela ave.

  • Good

Nice pic. A little soft on focus though and maybe a little more contrast would have added to the quality.
