Information about the Killdeer:

The Killdeer is a robin-sized plover and the largest of the ringed plovers. They are fairly common and often seen in open grasslands, fields, wetlands, croplands, on lakeshores, pastures, prairies and even golf courses and parking lots. Primarily killdeers feed on insects and other invertebrates, although they will also eat berries. They are grounding nesting birds and when they have chicks to protect frequently uses a "broken wing act" to distract predators from the nest.
