Killdeer (nest)

Charadrius vociferus

Description:

At this location I had been watching a pair of Killdeers for a while and happened upon this nest because one of the adults was doing the broken wing display to lead me away from the nest, so I got a quick image and left before I bothered them to much.

Habitat:

Sandy open area in mixed woodland.
