Yeah I was walking around and I saw a really awesome chick and mother and father killdeer.
I actually was able to get a picture of the super amazing chick that was exquisitely camouflaged and perfectly still.
The parents will pretend to be injured to draw off the predators...
And apparently the name comes from their cry. Personally I don't think it sounds like that but whatever amazing post and really love the photography
Thanks for checking it out man! I didn't know why they called them that but I guess I'll have to listen to both the cry of the bird and the sound of a deer being killed? Lol not sure about it :D but I never knew the name of the bird! I think I've seen them around a bit so now that I know what it is, it makes sense!
It's a crazy critter
