Yes, those are the ones. I forget the name used in Paraguay. I’m out in the fields with my dogs but even they have never found a nest.

Now what are the odds of that?
As for the birds. Black and white wings and very vocal? Southern Lapwings. They are ground nesting and if you ever get close to finding a nest they will let you know

I’m wondering about this kind of aggressive bird that you see in fields. Sometimes they come flying straight towards you only to veer at the last moment. I’ve heard they nest on the ground but can never find their eggs.
