Super billede, i flot højformat, PAUL.
______________________________________

Kendte hidtil kun Yellow-w./ Indisk Lapvibe* fra
bøger, fx Kazmierczak 2000, og fra KLAUS M.O.s
NETFUGL foto 5. apr. 2009.

Dér fremstår den med douce LYST-farvet bryst à la bleg
Silkehale, Small Pratincole el. White-tailed Lapwing.

Men ovenfor er der tydeligvis MØRK chokolade, ligesom
på flere andre NETFUGL billeder.

Er der tale om lyseffekter, individuelle variationer, noget med hanner vs. hunner, yngletid el. underformer/morfer?

*) På dansk skelnes ml. Indisk Lapvibe og Indisk Vibe =
den mindre lappede Red-wattled Lapwing.
LAP i -vibe betyder ikke sm. som LAP i Lapwing.

Hej Carsten,
..farven er nok lidt for lys i Kazmierczaks/van Perlos tegning, vil jeg sige.
Andre bøger fremstiller den mørkere, fx. Rasmussen/Anderton "The Ripley Guide" 2005. Plus Helm Field Guides, 2nd Edition, 2011. Grimmett/Inskipp

Apropos etymologi : "LAPWING: M.E. lappewinke (late 14c.), lapwyngis (early 15c.), folk etymology alteration of O.E. hleapewince, probably lit. "leaper-winker," from hleapan "to leap" + wince "totter, waver, move rapidly," related to wincian "to wink." Said to be so called from "the manner of its flight" [OED] "in reference to its irregular flapping manner of flight" [Barnhart], but the lapwing also flaps on the ground pretending to have a broken wing to lure egg-hunters away from its nest, which seems a more logical explanation. Its Greek name was polyplagktos "luring on deceitfully." fra etymonline.com

Tak, PAUL, for ID korrektiv til Kazm./Perlo og for
etymol. Perler!

Undlader at inspireres af svensk Tofsvipa til et
engelsk 'LAPTOP'...

men tænker dog på PLOVERCREST, der som bekendt
betegner en Kolibri (!), afbildet af LILLY I.S. og
JENS T. i Galleriet, dansk navn 'Vibekolibri'.

Smil ,,,,,,,,,,, C.
