Baby’s Day Out

Red-wattled Lapwing (nestling) Vanellus indicus Manchinabele Dam Area, near Bangalore This dude had perhaps come out from its nest the first time. I don't know if it is a normal behavior or if it was out by accident. Its parents seem to be scouring the whole area looking for him with their non-stop did-he-do-it calls. But its pretty difficult to find a 3cm tall baby when its so well camouflaged. This baby could neither fly nor shout but boy, could he make a run for it! I got only a few shots with him running all around making it tough to capture on camera.
