Killdeer

     I love killdeers. I admire them a lot. They have so much self control and remain so calm when danger is nearby.
     I love to see them sit without a single movement when they are on their eggs. And when they do move they are so good in pretending they are hurt. When I was a kid I used to love following them when they would flap their wings. I knew what they were doing but I just wanted to see how far they would take me from their nest.
      And to this day whenever I hear their call it brings back fond childhood memories.
     One of my favorite birds.
