The Southern Lapwing, known as Tero in Uruguay. Has vicious spurs - as pictured. Will defend its nest and young vigorously against other animals, however large.
Passing not its strong point - tends to puncture the ball.
Welcome to the unofficial Maidenhead Rugby Under 16 tour of Argentina and Uruguay 2010 blog. The intention is to help non-travelling supporters stay in touch with the tourists with at least daily updates of our on and off-field progress.It's unofficial in the sense that content and comment here is going to be published by me and not by the club. If anyone has any problems with anything, please email me directly at graemessmith@btconnect.com and I will respond. Or you can call me on 07979 498858. Otherwise, please feel free to add comments and get involved.
Email me also with anything you would like me to publish - photos, video, text or links. While we are away, I can accept anything you can give me on SD Card or via USB.
Come on Maids!
