While out on a bike ride about a week ago now, I was able to capture my first Killdeer shot for the year and was lucky enough to capture 2 of them at once. I had heard them many times but had not seen them. Killdeers are a type of Plover and their name comes from their call. They nest on the ground and where I saw them, made me wonder if there was a nest close by. They like gravel areas, open fields, lawns and golf courses.
No broken wing trick?
ReplyDeleteNo, I was surprised. A lot of bobbing up and down. Maybe no chicks around.
