I think this is a juvenile Red-Capped Plover, as adults were seen around the vicinity, but would welcome other opinions.

Had moved on my next visit. Emerged from under a nearby rock.
This bird has been around for quite a while and this is the clearest shot I have been able to get of it. Difficulty telling exactly what it is.... Wasn't giving up its crested pigeon catch today.... at least it wasn't one of my bantams this time.
