|| BREEDING TIME ||
The Senegal lapwing || Vanellus lugubris || is known for its unique nesting behaviors, similar to other members of the Charadriiformes order.
These birds typically lay 1 to 2 eggs in a carefully constructed ground nest. After an incubation period of approximately two weeks, the eggs will hatch, bringing new life into the world. The attentive care during incubation is crucial for the survival of the chicks, ensuring they are well-protected until they are ready to fledge.
