Australia is famous for some of its endemic species like the Wombat, the Emu, the Tasmanian Devil or the Kangaroo of course. But there are so many other unique species. Some even being very regional and only existing in a very particular and restricted area. Here, in the Northern Territory, there are millions of birds in the sky. The most common probably is the Masked Lapwing that can be spotted as frequently as we can spot pigeons on the Piazza San Marco in Venice! They are a bit more shy but they are known for their bold nesting habits, being quite prepared to make a nest on almost any stretch of open ground, including suburban parks and gardens, school ovals, and even supermarket carparks.
