Also, thanks for you post on the killdeer bird. I looked up youtube videos on this bird since I have never seen one. Now I know what one looks like and how they act.[/quote]
I call them "tee tee" birds (don't exactly know why, just do, and always have). I used to chase them on the Seashore here in Louisiana. I love to watch them. With the loss of marshland, last year we had a family in the yard where I work. It was too cute to see the little ones (really, really small) grow up. Love them!
