Beschreibung

Systematik: Gattung Vanellus (Vanellus); Familie Regenpfeifer (Charadriidae)
Wat-, Möwen-und Alkenvögel, Regenpfeifer, ■■
Allgemein: Deutschland: Brut-, Zugvogel RL 2
Etymologie: The name lapwing has been variously attributed to the "lapping" sound its wings make in flight, from the irregular progress in flight due to its large wings (the Oxford English Dictionary derives this from an Old English word meaning "to totter"),[4] or from its habit of drawing potential predators away from its nest by trailing a wing as if broken. [Link]
The names peewit, pewit, tuit or tew-it are onomatopoeic and refer to the bird's characteristic call. [Link]
Vokalisierung: Quite vocal, especially in flight at breeding ground. [Link]
