Killdeer chicks
The Killdeer chicks hatched this weekend - two of them. They are very small – only about an inch and a half from beak to tail – much smaller than a chicken's chicks. It’s easy to miss the fluffy chicks scurrying along the road. They are fast and lively, but a little clumsy on their long legs.

Precious! It reminds me of the sandpipers running near the waves in Florida. I've seen films of Killdeer, but never one in person. I wonder why they always nest near your driveway, when they view your car as such a threat?
