Not to worry I used long lens and the parents soon lured me away.

I love Killdeer babies! I hope you will get some
shots of them when they start following Mom
around the field. So cool to find the nest!
Nice shot, Ann!

I hope they laid these somewhere safe from cars and lawnmowers! Aren't they just the most wonderful birds?!! To me, when they come back spring has finally really arrived! :-)

I've seen many killdeer over the years, doing their wing-dragging, "follow me, I'm hurt" ruse to lure me away from their nests, but never saw an actual nest or eggs until this photo. Bless your heart; now I see why the parents try so hard to protect their well-camouflaged eggs!

About pasocorto
pasocorto Let me introduce myself. My name is Ann. I’ve always loved the beauty around me, from this great earth to all the creatures found on it. My handle “Pasocorto” comes from the gait of pasofino horses, which I own and love. I’m semi retired and groom dogs part time. Photography has always been a passion. It is great to see and share all of the wonderful photos that are posted here on Wunderground.com. A big thanks to my brother, Ivan, for introducing me to so many new friends.
