The last 3 days I kept seeing this'injured'Killdeer.




I kinda knew there were eggs or young somewhere,so merrily swinging my coil lookie what I found.


The spot has been marked with a piece of rolled turf,the rock was already there.
Now I'll wait till they hatch and shoot the young(with my Nikon).

Of course I had to get this one too.




On the way out I see this guy in the swamp.




GOD Bless

Chris,

Those killdeer birds fake injury to lure people away from the nest....very smart of them.

Thanks for this post; brought back memories of my youth when I went to Kildeer grade school (Illinois); named after the same bird--but we spelled it with only one "l"

worldtalker,
A while back? ...that it was.
Desks had inkwells (no joke); that's how long ago.
Ten students in my 8th grade class; 78 in the entire school.
Again, great memories.

Four little babies on the way I can't imagine getting to see an eagle as often as you do. That is amazing! Great pictures!

Earlier this spring there were 2 nest sites and I was watching 4 of them until 2 Eaglets on one site died.
