The red-wattled lapwing is an Asian lapwing or large plover, a wader in the family Charadriidae. Like other lapwings they are ground birds that are incapable of perching. Usually seen in pairs or small groups and usually not far from water they sometimes form large aggregations in the non-breeding season.
