 Furious! (38) saguzar
(6567) | A photo with something of fortune.This southern lapwing lived in the backyard of the School of Technical Education Nº 1 of Monte, that has it green part only 30 xs 40 meters. Although it seems incredible they put eggs in the middle of grass, in spite of rambling of the students. I was with intentions to photograph the nest, when I did not saw the parents but from soon one ceiling descended del and it threatened single 3 meters to me while other it did grazing flights to me. Only I made 2 photos one of lapwing and another one of the nest not to make anger them more. I decided to interfere because the lapwings do not leave the nest when they walk the intruders, on the other hand in escueñla had surrounded the nest with pieces by stucco to do it visible.I take it a day who were going to dictate class, during the summer did not saw them and feared for them, but I saw yesterday with one son grow put in the ceiling of the school. The photo is not very good tecnicamente because I take it worried and my camera has difficulties when there is little light (I removed it to the dusk in shades), I publish it because it seems to me interesting as it shows spurs.
