There is a pair in Hobart regularly nests in the middle of a suburban
roundabout. Virtually the first trip the chicks have to make each
year is to cross the road to a park nearby.

Dear all,
The perversity of Lapwings to nest in very public areas is
amazing. There was a pair that regularly nested on the golf course
in Armidale (not sure if they are still doing so). And they
swooped, but seemed to target one golfer in particular who would
end up in an absolute fury, flinging clubs at the birds. Of
course, onlookers thought this quite funny, because the golfer in
question although on a very low handicap, was quite often very
grumpy, to say the least.
