Very nice shots! Your plovers look a little different from the ones I see here.

I've always called them 'Masked Lapwing Plovers", seems they have there own subgroup. So there just Masked Lapwing's.


Google just told me this,

Despite the species being also known as the masked plover and often called the spur-winged plover or just plover in its native range, lapwings are classified to their own subfamily, Vanellinae, and not to the closely related plover subfamily, Charadriinae.
