Ljip / Kievit / Lapwing - a photo on Flickriver

            Populations of the Ljip or Northern Lapwing, Vanellus vanellus, has declined steadily in the 21st century, even though It Fryske Gea maintains there are 200.000-300.000 breeding pairs in the country, with the province of Friesland claiming the majority of those birds. 
The hunting of lapwing eggs has been severely curtailed as a cultural practice, with aaisykjers (egg hunters) now required to get a permit and to send an sms message on their cellphones when they find eggs to the registering agency since 2015. It remains to be seen how well this is working out and whether aaisykjers are harvesting the eggs they do find or not.
