Last year in the same area, a pair had a nest on a townhouse nature strip opposite the Sea Scout Hall. When the young hatched, the parents even challenged passing cars, posturing in the road with wings outstretched. Very ambitiously assertive.
Quite likely the same pair.

Hi to all those who walk around Lake Tuggeranong.  I was swooped today by a pair of M lapwings along the path not far from the Sea Scout hall.  didn’t stop too long to see if I could see a nest.
