This video was made with a digital camera, so please be patient with the quality. This type of bird is called a "Killdeer". They nest on the ground. The parents are known for pretending like they are injured or have a broken wing in order to lure predators away from the nest. This behavior is what I captured on this video. There is also a brand new baby running around and it is pretty cute.

  • great demonstration of defense technique... just think, entire program running in tiny birdbrain is purely genetic, repeated again and again generationally.
