Hi Willy,
No there are no previous records from NNP, historically a nest was
found on Stony Athi.
This is such a very rare bird in Kenya, but when they should turn up
as southern visitors. Is it still there and can you just give a brief
outline how it differed from a Crowned Plover.
Very best for now
Brian
