While running at the Rec. Dept. today I noticed a Killdeer sitting next to the curb of the park road and it started running to lead me away from the nest and pretending to be injured. These amazing birds lay their eggs in the open with no real nest for protection. Here is the photo that I took of her eggs/nest just inches from the road.
