Strike while the iron is hot! This Blacksmith Lapwing from Kruger Park, South Africa, shows off its impressive metalworking skills. With a beak as sturdy as an anvil and feathers shimmering like molten steel, this charismatic shorebird is a true master of its craft. Known for their distinctive calls that resemble the sound of a blacksmith's hammer hitting metal, these lapwings are always ready to put on a show. Whether they're strutting confidently along the water's edge or gracefully taking flight with wings spread wide, their presence in Kruger National Park adds an extra touch of charm to the African landscape. With their long legs and sharp eyesight, these plovers are expert hunters. They can spot even the tiniest insects scurrying across the ground and swiftly snatch them up with precision. It's no wonder they've earned their reputation as skilled waders. Photographer Mathias Schaef has captured this moment perfectly in his stunning print.
