I think I just want to write about birds again tonight

  

Get close to a killdeer nest and Mom tries to distract you away from it by feigning a broken wing, broken leg, or broken everything.  Follow her far enough away, and she'll suddenly recover and fly off.  When she's sure you're not looking anymore, she'll plop back down on the eggs.

 

Even she can even be a little hard to spot from a distance.


 

I didn't really get this near.  I cranked up the long lens for the close-up shot.

 

 

 

In other news, Chad made it here as well tonight; all the way from Hawaii.
