I was on my way to the hardware store to pick up some supplies. I pulled into the parking lot and as I looked across the way I saw what looked to be 3 Killdeer having a group discussion. Killdeer are technically shorebirds but I guess they forgot to tell them because I see more Killdeer inland than I do at the shore.I left my binoculars at home but I was glad that I had my camera with me! One of them was sunken down into a small pothole. Maybe not the best place to keep your eggs. I hope that's not the case but I'll have to take a distant peek into that pothole tomorrow!Birds are all around us and they don't wait for us to go birdwatching to make themselves visible!

We see Killdeer often in the hay fields here and they like to walk along our gravel roads.
I love their song and how they run in front of you while you walk and act wounded.
Nice find! Strange place to be in a road?
