Peewee [magpie-lark]

Sunday animals

 

The magpie-lark, also known as the peewee, peewit or mudlark, is a passerine bird native to Australia, Timor and southern New Guinea. The male and female both have black and white plumage, though with different patterns. John Latham described the species in 1801. The name Magpie-lark is quite misleading, as the species has no link with either the magpies or the larks. Wikipedia
