Peeweep

1. Type of bird: 


Peeweep is a type of bird, often understood to be a lapwing.

It is common through temperate Eurosiberia.

It is highly migratory over most of its extensive range, wintering further south as far as North Africa, northern India, Nepal, Bhutan and parts of China.

It migrates mainly by day, often in large flocks.

Lowland breeders in westernmost areas of Europe are resident.

It occasionally is a vagrant to North America, especially after storms, as in the Canadian sightings after storms in December 1927 and in January 1966.
