Spotted Thick-knee
This Spotted Thick-knee (Burhinus capensis) was very relaxed on our pavement from midday.
The specie distribution is most of Africa south of the Sahara, and is a common resident throughout South Africa.
It is largely crepuscular and nocturnal in habits, and can be very vocal during the hours of darkness.
Edit:
The bird has been there all afternoon. Now dark, and its is calling regularly.
