Grey-headed Lapwing

I missed it the last time it was seen here in 2007.  I was not going to miss out this time.  On my second visit to the Penampang rice fields to look for it, lady luck and 2 other birding friends made sure I was going to tick this rare migrant.  It was solitary, possibly a first year in non-breeding plumage.  But it was surely a Grey-headed Lapwing!
