Or changing to alternate plumage?<br/><br/> Note the slightly raised leg. Sibley says: &quot;An interesting feeding ploy used by lapwings and plovers involves foot-trembling and foot-tapping. On intertidal mudflats, plovers will often slightly raise one leg and vibrate it rapidly so the toes disturb the substrate causing small prey to move and become easier to capture. The same technique used in grassland habitats may mimic the sound of either rain, or subterranean burrowing predators, causing prey such as earthworms to come to the surface.\"", location: "Palo Alto - Baylands", date: new Date(2005,3,10) },
